During the summer transfer window, Nottingham Forest made some strategic moves to strengthen their squad. With a focus on younger players with potential resale value, they brought in a total of 11 new faces. Two of these players, Marko Stamenic and David Carmo, were quickly loaned to Olympiacos for the season.
One standout signing was Elliot Anderson, who arrived from Newcastle for a significant fee of £35 million. This unexpected move was reportedly driven by owner Evangelos Marinakis, who saw Anderson as a promising replacement for Morgan Gibbs-White in the future.
Despite Anderson’s hefty price tag, Forest managed to balance the books by sending Odysseas Vlachodimos to Newcastle for £20 million. The young midfielder has already made an impact on the team, showcasing his talent and work ethic under manager Nuno Espirito Santo.
With Anderson’s potential and the club’s commitment to developing young players, Forest fans can look forward to seeing him thrive in the future and make a significant impact on the team.
