TEHRAN – Iranian international midfielder Ashkan Dejagah will leave championships side Nottingham Forest.

Forest finished the season in 17th place with 53 points, two points better off than a year ago.

At the top, Wolves secured promotion and an impressive 99 points, followed by Cardiff, with Fulham, Aston Villa, Middlesbrough and Derby settling for places in the play-offs.

Dejagah, who is out of contract this summer, signed a short-term deal until the end of the season when he joined as a free agent during the January window.

Nottingham Forest have published their retained list following the end of the 2017/18 campaign – and officially confirmed that Chris Cohen, David Vaughan, Jack Hobbs and Ashkan Dejagah will not be offered new deals.
