Newly-promoted Nottm Forest have announced that they have signed Omar Richards on a permanent deal from Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.

The 24-year-old told Forest’s official website: “I’m thrilled to return to England by joining Nottingham Forest at such an exciting time.

“The club has enjoyed an incredible last few months and there’s great ambitions for the Premier League return.

“I’ve played against Forest in the past and they get such great backing from their fans, whilst the City Ground is an amazing place that I can now call home.”

Nottm Forest boss Steve Cooper added: “I’ve seen a lot of Omar through his time with Reading and, alongside our recruitment team, we have been following his progress in Germany.

“He previously established himself as one of the best full backs in the Championship, but has since gone on to experience the Champions League and the Bundesliga with one of the biggest clubs in the world.

“We believe that he can make a big impact in our return to the Premier League and are delighted that he has chosen to join us at Nottingham Forest.”
