Nottingham Forest boss Oliver Glasner believes Liam Delap has joined the "perfect club" for him following his failed stint at Chelsea.
The Tricky Trees signed the centre-forward on a five-year deal for a club record £50 million transfer fee from the Blues on Thursday. The deal includes an initial £45 million fee plus £5 million in potential add-ons.
The 23-year-old racked up more cards than goal involvements in his only season at Stamford Bridge, receiving nine bookings and a red card while registering three goals and four **** ists in 47 appearances in all competitions.
Despite Delap's disappointing performances, Chelsea could make up to £20 million in profit on the £30 million they paid Ipswich Town for him only a year ago.
Glasner says that Delap is the "perfect fit" for his Forest squad as he brings both power and pace up top, and expects him to thrive at the City Ground.
