Three-time Champions League winner Keylor Navas has joined Nottingham Forest on loan until the end of the season.
The Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper has not played for PSG in the league this season with Italy international Gianluigi Donnarumma holding down the No. 1 spot.
Forest’s first choice goalkeeper Dean Henderson – on loan from Manchester United – picked up a thigh injury in the East Midlands derby against Leicester City earlier this month and could be out until March.

It means Forest only have one fit senior goalkeeper in Wayne Hennessey, but the Premier League club had reportedly been in the market for a goalkeeper all window.
The deal had reportedly hit a snag due to Navas’ wages, but Forest have been able to come to an agreement with the Ligue 1 champions.
Navas has made 108 appearances for PSG since his arrival from Real Madrid in 2019.
Nottingham Forest have been one of the more active Premier League clubs in the January transfer window, making six signings in total.
Brazilian defender Felipe has arrived from Atletico Madrid in a £2m deal on deadline day as well as Jonjo Shelvey from Newcastle on a two-and-a-half-year contract.
Gustavo Scarpa, Brandon Aguilera, Danilo and Chris Wood have also joined the club in January.
