Nuno Espírito Santo has provided a team news update ahead of Forest’s Emirates FA Cup fourth round replay against Bristol City.
New signings Matz Sels, Gio Reyna and Rodrigo Ribeiro, who made their Forest debuts in Sunday’s 1-1 draw against AFC Bournemouth, are ineligible to face the Robins on Wednesday night having not been registered for the original tie.
Midfield duo Ryan Yates and Nico Domínguez will also be unavailable for Wednesday’s replay through suspension, having both picked up two yellow cards so far in the competition.
In terms of injuries, Nuno revealed that Callum Hudson-Odoi is a doubt for Wednesday after being on the receiving end of a challenge that saw Philip Billing be shown a straight red card against Bournemouth, whilst striker Chris Wood will be unavailable for “some time” due to a hamstring injury.
“Callum’s having treatment. He still has a lot of pain, but he’s having treatment and let’s see.”
“Chris is out for some time, hopefully not for a long time. We are frustrated, but this happens. Unfortunately he’s going to be out for some time.
“We know more than anyone that we have problems, but with problems, we will find solutions. This is our vision.”
