'œI was really impressed with him in terms of what he's done,'ť Luton Town manager Nathan Jones said. "We were aware of him, then he went to Forest and he did well in the limited amount of time he had to play.'ť

Horvath has eight caps for the U.S., and hopes to make the squad for the World Cup in Qatar.
