Nottingham Forest sign Anthony Elanga from Manchester United

"It's a pleasure to be here. It's a proud moment, not only for me, but for my family as well," Elanga told the club's website.

"It's the perfect next step for me in my career, it's a big step and I'm really looking forward to playing in front of the Forest fans at The City Ground. I had interest from elsewhere, but for me, Nottingham Forest feels like the perfect place.

"I've been here with United, and from the minute I stepped out for the warm-up, I could hear them from the changing room. It's a special place, but being here with Forest, I feel like it will be even more special.

"I'm really ready for the challenge and I just want to embrace everything and get to work."
