Nottingham Forest fans have taken to Twitter to react after the club signed Leicester defender Yohan Benalouane in an attempt to ease their injury crisis in defence.

The Championship play-off chasers have been dealt a significant blow at the back, having lost Danny Fox to suspension, along with all of Michael Dawson, Michael Hefele and Tobias Figueiredo to injury.

Newly-appointed boss Martin O’Neill has been unsuccessful in his attempts to recall Joe Worrall from his loan spell with Rangers, having missed the deadline for such an action – Forest could only cancel the 22-year-old’s loan before January 7th.

As a result, the former Aston Villa manager has signed the Tunisian international Benalouane, who helped the Foxes win the Premier League and reach the Champions League quarter-finals.

The 31-year-old has signed an 18-month contract with the club, and Forest fans are happy that their defensive crisis has been somewhat eased…
