"I've seen a lot of Omar through his time with Reading and, alongside our recruitment team, we have been following his progress in Germany," Cooper told the club's website.

"He previously established himself as one of the best full backs in the Championship, but has since gone on to experience the Champions League and the Bundesliga with one of the biggest clubs in the world.

"We believe that he can make a big impact in our return to the Premier League and are delighted that he has chosen to join us at Nottingham Forest."
