Latest Nottingham Forest news as Portuguese winger becomes Reds' sixth signing of summer window
Head coach Nuno Espirito Santo now has plenty of options as he ponders his best Nottingham Forest team.
Forest could yet recruit another winger to ensure they have even more strength in depth out wide. But having players already capable of filling in on either side will certainly be beneficial for Nuno. Playing without a recognised striker didn’t really work in last week’s 1-0 defeat to Elche, when Forest started with the attacking trio of Elanga, Gibbs-White and Hudson-Odoi. But Jota can fill in as a wing-back, as well as up front, so could give Nuno the option to tweak the system slightly.
Indeed, there is plenty of cause for optimism among Reds fans. Progress is the watchword around the City Ground at the moment, and the hope is that supporters won’t be chewing their fingernails or calculating final-day survival permutations come May. Nevertheless, do not underestimate just how valuable having uninterrupted time with his players can be for Nuno. He has described pre-season as the “most important” period of the year and felt he missed out by being appointed Trentside in the middle of the last campaign.
