Nottingham Forest defender Mohamed Drager has completed a loan move to Swiss side FC Luzern.
The right-back has not featured for the Reds since signing from fellow Evangelos Marinakis-owned club Olympiacos in the summer.
He has been away on international duty with Tunisia at the Africa Cup of Nations, having recovered from a recent injury and from testing positive for Covid-19.
Drager had been linked with a move away from the City Ground for much of January, with Esperance Sportive de Tunis, Caen, Saint-Etienne, Rijeka and Standard Liege all credited with an interest.
Announcing his departure, the club said: “Nottingham Forest can confirm that Mohamed Dräger has joined Swiss Super League side FC Luzern on loan until the end of the season.
“Dräger joined the Reds from Olympiacos in August and recently made three appearances for Tunisia in their Africa Cup of Nations campaign.
“We wish Mohamed well for the remainder of the season.”
He follows Jayden Richardson, Tyrese Fornah, Carl Jenkinson, Jordan Wright, Lyle Taylor and Joao Carvalho in heading elsewhere this winter, while Jordi Osei-Tutu returned to parent club Arsenal and Rodrigo Ely’s contract was terminated by mutual consent.
Forest brought in five signings during the January window, adding Keinan Davis, Steve Cook, Richie Laryea, Sam Surridge and Jonathan Panzo to the squad.
The length of Drager’s contract was not disclosed when he put pen to paper for the Reds last year.
