Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo has admitted that he wants Ola Aina back in action as soon as possible.
The Nigerian defender has been sidelined with injury, leaving Forest without an important option as the Premier League campaign enters a crucial stage.
Nuno is hopeful Aina can return next week and strengthen the squad for the demanding fixtures ahead. Softfootball reports that the Forest manager values the Nigerian’s contribution and is keen to have him available again.
Aina has played an important role for Forest this season, making his absence a concern for the coaching staff. His versatility and defensive qualities have made him a trusted member of the squad.
However, Forest will not want to risk the defender before he is ready. His recovery will therefore continue to be monitored carefully.
The club is competing for important objectives and will need as many key players available as possible. Aina’s return would give Nuno another valuable option as the season approaches its decisive phase.
