Aston Villa versus Nottingham Forest: A pair of injuries teases
Current Nottingham Forest news as Steve Cooper’s team gets ready for Sunday’s Premier League match against Aston Villa
Danilo and Callum Hudson-Odoi of Nottingham Forest seem to have given positive updates regarding their injury statuses.
In recent weeks, Reds head coach Steve Cooper has been without several players. His options have been particularly limited at the top of the pitch, but last weekend’s return of striker Taiwo Awoniyi from the bench at Liverpool was a major boost.
Cooper stated that Danilo, the midfielder, had resumed part-training prior to the match at Anfield, speeding up his recuperation from a hamstring issue. He hasn’t played since the team’s victory over Chelsea at the beginning of September because he wasn’t well enough to participate in the 3-0 loss to Jurgen Klopp’s squad.
However, the Brazilian uploaded images of himself in training to Instagram ahead of Sunday’s match against Aston Villa, suggesting that he might soon be available once more. “WE BACK, THANK GOD” was the translation of the caption he included.
Cooper had stated last week that Danilo, center-back Felipe, and full-back Nuno Tavares—who did not play against Liverpool—are back in part-training, not full training. Since Danilo has been absent for what seems like a long time, we must exercise caution when reintegrating him.
They participated in a few warm-ups and non-contact exercises. I hope that’s the next phase of their healing.
In the interim, Hudson-Odoi sustained a hamstring injury during Forest’s 2-2 draw with Luton Town. It is anticipated that he will be out for roughly six weeks.
The winger additionally shared some images of himself on the grass on Instagram. “Missing it,” he wrote, emoji-ing tears. Return soon.
