3 key players injure suddenly,and 2 players receive suspended because of…..
In anticipation of their Premier League comeback this Saturday against West Ham, Nottingham Forest is hard at work getting ready.
Both clubs need the three points up for grabs as the Reds and Hammers play at the City Ground. The previous match saw Forest lose 3-2 to Newcastle United, while West Ham suffered a 6-0 loss against Arsenal at home.
Forest is now only two points above the relegation zone in 16th position in the Premier League standings following their loss to Newcastle. The Reds would be delighted with a win, as they will play Liverpool and Aston Villa in their next two league games.
Due to injuries, Nuno Espirito Santo will have to contend with the absence of several of his important players. Due to a hamstring injury, Chris Wood is still sidelined and is not anticipated to play again for another two months.
Gonzalo Montiel is also not playing because of a hamstring problem. Although a precise comeback date for the World Cup champion is unknown, he will most certainly not play against West Ham.
When questioned about Montiel by reporters on Thursday, Nuno responded, “He is not going to be available.” “Let’s wait and see; he is receiving therapy. I have no idea how long he will be absent.
“Most of the team remains the same. We face several problems.
Nuno also said that Ibrahim Sangare, Willy Boly, and Ola Aina would not be able to play against West Ham. After representing their respective nations at the Africa Cup of Nations, the three have just lately returned to the UK.
In the championship match, Nigeria fell 2-1 against Ivory Coast, despite Aina starting for his nation. Boly was left out of the matchday roster, although Sangare came in as a substitute for Ivory Coast during the game.
Nuno stated that none of the three would be eligible to play West Ham even if they had returned to Nottingham. Consequently, it is more possible that Aino, Boly, and Sangare will play against Aston Villa the following week.
“They won’t be accessible for this particular game. They won’t be available for this game, but they will come back to us and re-join the group, Nuno stated on Thursday.
