Nottingham Forest have signed goalkeeper Vladimir Stojkovic on a two-year deal from Israeli side Maccabi Haifa.

The Serbian international has more than 60 caps for his national side and will provide much-needed over after Dorus de Vries left for Celtic last month.

Stojkovic played for Serbia at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. The 33-year-old played in all three group matches, keeping a clean sheet in the 1-0 victory over Germany.

At club level Stojkovic has claimed multiple honours with his native side Partizan, winning three league titles and a domestic cup over a three-year period.

Forest are Stojkovic’s 12th club in a career which began in 2001

He has also had a taste of English football before with a short loan spell at then-Premier League side Wigan Athletic under Roberto Martinez.

Standing at 6ft 5ins, he played 68 times for Maccabi and even registered a goal while playing for FK Partizan in his homeland in 2012, scoring from the spot for the side to complete a 7-0 win.
