NOTTINGHAM FOREST have terminated James Ward-Prowse’s loan at the City Ground.
The former England midfielder, 30, is now set to return to parent club West Ham.
Ward-Prowse had signed for Forest on a season-long loan deal last August.
But a lack of game time of late has seen him go back to the London Stadium.
The 11-cap ace has not featured at all in Forest’s last four Premier League games.
His last Prem start came against Arsenal all the way back in November.
Ward-Prowse remains under contract with West Ham until June 2027.
He could now re-enter their plans under new boss Graham Potter.
The Southampton academy graduate left St Mary’s for West Ham in 2023.
Ward-Prowse had made 410 appearances for his boyhood club.
He then moved to West Ham in a deal worth around £30million.
The set-piece specialist scored seven goals and laid on seven assists during his full campaign in East London.

Ward-Prowse featured in Julen Lopetegui’s first game in charge last August, before being farmed out on loan.
