Last updated : 21 November 2012 By Alastair Limb (tykesmad)

Nottingham Forest midfielder Jonathan Greening has signed on loan for the Reds.

The 33-year-old midfielder has spent a lot of time out injured in recent years but he is back to fitness now, and has agreed a short term move to Oakwell until 2nd January 2013.

The Scarborough-born man began his career with York City, before his talent was spotted, when he was snapped up by Sir Alex Ferguson for Manchester United.

He made 14 appearances at Old Trafford, before moving onto Middlesbrough where he enjoyed a successful three year spell. He then joined West Brom.

After over 200 appearances for the Baggies spanning a six year association with the club, he joined Fulham after a successful loan spell with the Londoners.

The much-travelled midfielder joined Forest in June 2011 and has made 32 appearances at the City Ground.
