Nottingham Forest winger Alex Mighten has joined Sheffield Wednesday on loan until the end of the season.
The 20-year-old leaves for regular first team football in League One, with the youngster's opportunities limited at Forest now the club are back in the top flight.
Mighten made 23 appearances in the Championship last season as Forest earned promotion to the Premier League, with most of those coming from the bench under head coach Steve Cooper.

The winger now links up with Wednesday, who are managed by Darren Moore, and will be hoping for a consistent run of games as the Owls look to return to the Championship following their relegation last season.
In a statement this afternoon (Monday), Forest said: "Nottingham Forest winger Alex Mighten has joined League One side Sheffield Wednesday on a season-long loan.
"Our Academy graduate made his Forest breakthrough against Arsenal in 2019 and has so far amassed 66 appearances in all competitions for The Reds, netting his first senior goal against Millwall in December 2020.
"The Owls currently sit third in the table following a 5-0 victory at the weekend, and are managed by former West Brom boss Darren Moore. We wish Alex all the best during his loan spell at Hillsborough."
