Lewis Grabban has joined Nottingham Forest. After spending the 2017-18 season on loan first at Sunderland and then at Aston Villa, the 30-year-old has finally found a new permanent home at Forest after leaving Bournemouth.

As announced on Forest’s official website, the Reds have sign Grabban from Bournemouth on a four-year contract.

According to BBC Sport, the Reds have had to pay the Cherries a transfer fee of £6 million in order to secure the services of the 30-year-old, who can operate as a forward or as a winger.

The former Millwall striker scored 12 goals in 18 Championship starts for Sunderland in the first half of last season, and found the net eight times in 13 league starts for Villa during the second half.

Grabban helped the Villans reach the Championship playoff final last season, but not all Villa fans are massive fans of him.

Some Villa fans have warned Forest not to expect too much of Grabban, as the following comments on Twitter show.
