Nottingham Forest defender, Ola Aina has revealed the secret grudge he held against Adama Traoré for an incident that happened when they were both in the English Championship, Softfootball reports.
Both are in the premier league now but Aina, who extended his Forest contract few months ago was not letting go until he bettered the Spaniard last season during a match, he outplayed Adama with pace and skills and was on the winning side.
Speaking to former Wycombe Wanderers striker Adebayo Akinfenwa on his official podcast tagged Beast mode, Aina revealed his long-kept secret. He said:
I was at Hull City and he was then at Middlesborough. You know like what embarrassment is. I’m quick (but during the game) on the half way line, he came towards me with the ball, knocked it pass me, bam! I turned but he’s gone and I was like ‘oh my days.’ That was 019, I promise you, I held a grudge from 019, I hadn’t played him until last season when we played them at home.
Ola Aina was involved for 90 minutes when Nottingham Forest drew goalless against Arsenal and has been one of the standout performers for the club since he joined the team. Manchester City were monitoring his situation at the club before he extended his contract.
Here is the video of Aina’s interview with Akinfenwa on his official podcast. Watch below.
