Nottingham Forest Hit by Huge Injury Blow Ahead of Ange Postecoglou's First Game
Ola Aina suffered a hamstring injury during Nigeria's World Cup qualifier, likely sidelining him for at least three months and impacting Nottingham Forest's defensive options.
- Ange Postecoglou leads Nottingham Forest in his first game as manager on Saturday at the Emirates Stadium against Arsenal with a 12:30pm kickoff.
- Postecoglou replaced Nuno Espirito Santo after a falling out with club president Evangelos Marinakis, causing a rapid transition with limited preparation time.
- Forest must cope without injured left-back Ola Aina, who sustained a hamstring injury during Nigeria's 1-1 World Cup qualifier and will be absent until early December.
- Postecoglou mentioned that the team is mostly injury-free except for Aina, and added that scan results expected this afternoon will provide further details.
- This injury and Oleksandr Zinchenko’s ineligibility against Arsenal add challenges for Postecoglou’s debut, as Arsenal aim to secure the Premier League top spot.
