Nottingham Forest confirm transfer for teenage World Cup star

Nottingham Forest have announced the departure of Brandon Aguilera on loan for the rest of the season.

The Costa Rican international has joined Portuguese outfit Estoril on transfer deadline day. He will spend the second half of the campaign at the Primeira Liga side in the hope of gaining valuable game time in his development.

The 19-year-old, who is seen as one for the future, signed a four-year deal with the Reds in the summer, before returning to his home country to join club Guanacasteca on a six-month loan deal. His performances there earned him a call-up to the World Cup squad last year.

Aguilera featured in all of Costa Rica's group stage matches, including the 1-0 win over Japan. They almost qualified for the knockout rounds when they gave Germany a scare in the final group game.

Previously speaking about his move to Forest, he said: "I would like to thank God for this great opportunity with Nottingham Forest. It’s a dream come true for me to come over to England and be part of this club, which has such rich traditions and history that’s known around the world.

"The City Ground is a fantastic stadium and I can’t wait to experience it in full voice in the future."
