Blackburn Rovers have completed the signing of Ben Brereton from Nottingham Forest.
The forward will move to Ewood Park on an initial loan deal with the option of a permanent transfer in January.
It was understood that personal terms had been agreed ahead of a deal which will cost Tony Mowbray's side £6m.
Brereton scored six goals in 39 appearances for Forest last season.
A Forest statement said: "Nottingham Forest can confirm that Ben Brereton has joined Blackburn Rovers on an initial loan deal, with an option of this becoming a permanent transfer when the transfer window opens on the 1st January 2019."
Blackburn have completed deals for Jacob Davenport, Kasey Palmer, Harrison Reed and Jack Rodwell this summer.
