Chuba Akpom leaves Arsenal for Nottingham Forest on loan

Arsenal striker Chuba Akpom has signed for Nottingham Forest on loan until the end of the season.

Akpom, 19, has made his senior breakthrough at Arsenal this season, totalling seven appearances in all competitions -- all of which have been as a substitute.

The England under-20 international signed a new long-term deal with the Gunners in February and has now been loaned out to Nottingham Forest for the remainder of the campaign.

Akpom, who has previously had loan spells at Bradford and Coventry, will be at Forest until May 31, with the club currently ninth in the Championship table, 10 points off the playoff places.
