Nottingham Forest have signed teenage midfielder Liam Sole on a short-term contract with the Under-23s side.
The 19-year-old has been on trial with the Reds in recent weeks and has featured for the Under-23s in their last two games in the Professional Development League.
He opened the scoring for Forest in their 1-1 draw against Sheffield United earlier this month.
And he also played the full 90 minutes in the 1-0 victory over Wigan Athletic last Monday.
Sole started out at MK Dons, but failed to make a senior appearance for the club and had loan spells at Hampton and Richmond and St Albans.
He left Stadium MK this summer and will now link up with the Reds.
While he was on loan at St Albans, the youngster earned praise from manager Ian Allinson who said: “He’s a great talent and he’s got great energy.
“He’s very quick, unbelievable feet, but there are just a couple of areas (he needs to improve).
“He’s got in two or three times where he’s put their fella on his backside and just needs a little bit of calmness in terms of where he puts the next ball.”
Forest Under-23s are in action today when they make the trip to face Crewe Alexandra (1pm kick-off).
