According to a source, Nottingham Forest may find themselves with a significant issue at the City Ground as the January transfer window approaches.
Steve Cooper is under increasing pressure…
It was stated late last month in The Daily Mail that owner Evangelos Marinakis is becoming more and more irate over Nottingham Forest’s patchy performance, and that manager Steve Cooper needs a win over Everton to offer himself some further security at the City Ground.
There will be further pressure on Cooper as his team continues to drop down the Premier League standings after Everton’s lone goal over the weekend in the East Midlands produced a chorus of jeers at full time. The goal came from Dwight McNeil. During his press conference after the game, Cooper criticized the officiating quality of the game.
Nottingham Forest, with 13 points from their first 14 division games, is currently ranked 15th in the English premier league. Nevertheless, the Tricky Trees know that teams like Burnley, Bournemouth, Everton, and Luton Town could pose a threat to them if they keep up their point total over the coming weeks.
"We've had two very experienced referees in the last two games, and they couldn't be any further away from being consistent" ❌

Now, a fresh report suggests that their already fragile situation might get much more problematic when it comes to their mid-season window activities.
There could be a transfer embargo on Nottingham Forest.
Reliable reporter Alan Nixon of The Sun claims that Nottingham Forest may be subject to a transfer embargo after it became apparent that the club’s agents are upset over a late fee.
According to the report, agents may request that Nottingham Forest be subject to an embargo since they are legally protected by the Football Association. The East Midlands-based side’s chiefs have been cautioned that if they don’t figure out a solution, they could face more consequences.
The Reds are apparently looking for a few players going into the January transfer window, but if their worst nightmares came true and a transfer ban was implemented, that might be put in risk.
