NOTTINGHAM, England (AP) -- Ben Olsen, the U.S. Olympic and D.C. United midfielder, will play for England's Nottingham Forest for at least three months.
After securing a work permit for the 23-year-old player, Forest manager David Platt said Friday that the loan from the Major League Soccer club should be completed next week.
The deal calls for a three-month loan, but the English First Division club has expressed interest in a permanent transfer.
Olsen was MLS rookie of the year in 1998 and has made 17 international appearances for the U.S. national team.
