Bohinen is perhaps best well known in England for his time with Nottingham Forest. He moved from Young Boys to Frank Clark's Nottingham Forest for a £450,000 fee in 1993. He joined Forest at a time when they were struggling in the first division of English Football, and a clause in his contract meant that he could leave at any time if another club matched a £700,000 buyout fee. After gaining promotion to the
In 1995 English champions Blackburn matched the £700,000 buyout clause in his contract and Bohinen moved to Ewood Park, signing a three-year contract.[2] His first season was a success as he became a regular in the Blackburn side, scoring four league goals – including a double against his old club as Rovers thrashed Forest 7–0. Opportunities became more limited upon Roy Hodgson's arrival in 1997, as the new manager preferred more defensive-minded central midfielders.
Bohinen joined Derby County from Blackburn in March 1998 for £1.45 million. He had his contract cancelled by the club in January 2001,[3] having scored just once in a 3–1 away defeat against Crystal Palace in April 1998.[4][5]
