Liam Delap seals £45m Nottingham Forest move from Chelsea

Nottingham Forest have signed Chelsea striker Liam Delap for a club-record £45m. The 23-year-old has agreed a five-year deal and joins new manager Oliver Glasner.

Delap becomes Forest’s third club in three seasons after being told he was not part of Xabi Alonso’s plans at Chelsea. The striker expressed excitement about joining the Championship side, stating he spoke to manager Oliver Glasner and is eager to develop under his guidance.

"I really can’t wait to get started. This is a massive club with a big history. I spoke to the manager and I like his way, I think he can be the one to really help me develop and make that next step and hopefully I can bring goals here," Delap said. milkshakeslot.lat
