Jorge Grant has thanked Notts County for having taken him on loan last season and playing a huge part in helping him win a new Nottingham Forest contract.
The 22-year-old was on the fringes of the Reds first team in the previous campaign but, when taken on by Kevin Nolan midway through the season, had a huge impact.
Grant made 17 appearances and scored six goals from midfield to give the Magpies a huge shot in the arm and ended up surviving relegation from League Two with several games to spare.
His loan spell at Meadow Lane ultimately saw Forest offer him a new three-year contract, which he signed this week, and he admits he probably wouldn't have had that chance were it not for his successful Notts spell.
"I loved it (at Notts). I've got to thank the chairman, the manager and the players," Grant told the Forest website.
"They've helped me get to the position I'm in with the new contract. I owe them a massive thanks and the fans were amazing.
"I didn't get the chance to go week in, week out here, but I did over the road and I got a few goals. I played some of my best football so hopefully I can do that here.
"I don't want to go back to not playing so I'm going to go give it my all in pre-season and hopefully impress the manager."
