Nottingham Forest have been linked with an interest in Bayer Leverkusen defender Odilon Kossounou - but just who is the centre-back?
After plying his trade in the Ivory Coast as a youngster, Kossounou was spotted at a youth tournament by Hammarby IF in Sweden. He travelled to the club for several periods of training over the coming years, before making a permanent move shortly after his 18th birthday.
Having broken into the first team at Hammarby, he quickly earned himself a move to Belgium with Club Brugge, where he made his name. He won the league twice there, as well as one domestic cup, and caught the attention of a number of teams across Europe.
