    Nottingham Forest face massive summer after surviving chaotic season

    Nottingham Forest have already turned their attention to next season after the curtain came down the 2025/26 Premier League campaign with a 1-1 draw against Bournemouth. Matt Davies is joined by Greg Mitchell, Michael Temple and former Reds midfielder Lewis McGugan to reflect on the last 10 months and look ahead to the summer as Forest look to keep key men Morgan Gibbs-White and Neco Williams after Murillo signed a new contract. They will also hope to keep Elliot Anderson but that could prove impossible given the interest in the England international. #nffc #nottinghamforest 🙏 Do like and subscribe to our channel.

    Nottingham Forest 1 Bournemouth 1 | Point made to Tuchel

    It finished 1-1 in the final game of the season for Nottingham Forest as they welcomed Bournemouth to the City Ground. The game could be the final appearance in a Forest shirt for some with Manchester City pushing to sign Elliot Anderson, while Morgan Gibbs-White reminded Thomas Tuchel what he can do after his England snub with the Forest goal.

    Thomas Tuchel has confirmed his England squad for the 2026 World Cup squad and it's mixed news from a Nottingham Forest point of view.
