The former PSG youngster will make the move to the City Ground from Swedish outfit Malmo, for a fee said to be in the region of £600,000.
If all goes as expected, he will join Jack Colback, Tyler Blackett and Lyle Taylor as the new faces in Lamouchi’s squad.
Bachirou was at the academy of French giants PSG as a youngster, before spending four years at Scottish side Greenock Morton from 2010 to 2014.
He went on to join Ostersunds, followed by fellow Swedish team Malmo in 2018, while he has also represented Comoros at international level.
Once his move is confirmed, Bachirou will link up with his Forest teammates as they prepare for the new campaign, which gets underway in less than a fortnight.
The Reds face Barnsley in the Carabao Cup on September 5, with a trip to QPR their first league clash a week later.
