Nottingham Forest told to complete striker signing after Nuno shock - fans react

Nottingham Forest fans are demanding the club sign a new striker this summer after seeing the lineup Nuno Espirito Santo put out v Elche.

Forest’s pre-season tour of Spain continued with a 1-0 defeat to Elche, but fans noticed both Taiwo Awoniyi and Chris Wood were left out of the side.

Instead, the boss opted to start 31-year-old Hwang Ui-jo as a false nine.

This has led to suggestions that he was sending a message to the board about the lack of attacking reinforcements.

Awoniyi’s seemingly constant fitness issues have been a source of frustration for Forest, leaving Wood as the only option to lead the line.

Earlier this month, Football Insider reported that fans were calling for the club to cash in on the Nigerian after his latest absence.

The lack of attacking options for Forest is viewed as the main weakness in their squad ahead of the new Premier League season.

Football Insider revealed on 22 July that the club had joined the race to sign former Leicester striker Kelechi Iheanacho, but they now look likely to miss out.

As a result, fans are demanding the club enter the transfer market immediately to find a new striker, with less than two weeks before the season kicks off.

In other news, Newcastle could look to cash in on some of their long-serving stars.
