Jokic, 29, boasts 72 caps for Serbia, but has been restricted to just seven appearances for his parent club this season as Jaume Costa is preferred at left-back. Teenager Adrian Marin has also emerged as a fine talent in that position for El Submarino Amarillo.

Forest is currently 14th in the Championship table and faces Queens Park Rangers in the FA Cup third round this Saturday.
