Nottingham Forest confirmed on their official website that 22-year-old forward Gboly Ariyibi has been recalled to the club following his loan spell at Milton Keynes.

His initial loan deal was due to last to the end of the season, according to reports, but there was always an option for Ariyibi to come back to the City Ground early if Forest wanted him to.

Forest fans have reacted on Twitter to the news that Ariyibi has come back the club early with a mixture of encouraging Karanka to put him in the team and surprise at being reminded that the club still had him on their books.
