WYCOMBE Wanderers have signed former Northern Ireland and Celtic captain Neil Lennon on a free transfer.
The 36-year-old midfielder joins from Nottingham Forest, having only six months ago chosen Forest above Wanderers.
His arrival follows a day of denials from Wanderers who were keen to keep the deal under wraps until it was completed.

At 10am this morning they played down speculation that Lennon was a target, telling the Bucks Free Press they they couldn't afford him and that they were already well stocked in his position with Gary Holt and Tommy Doherty doing an excellent job.
They went onto say that they were after a wide player who would go outside people and another striker.
But the news of Lennon's transfer was revealed on the Nottingham Forest website this evening.
Lennon will now link up again with his former Celtic team-mate Paul Lambert, who is boss at Wanderers.
He is expected to go straight in to the squad for Saturday's trip to Accrington Stanley.
