Dan Ndoye - Set to join preseason training Ndoye will join Nottingham Forest's preseason training next week following his extended run with Switzerland at the World Cup, according to coach Oliver Glasner, per Jak Netting. "...

Impact Ndoye's late return comes after a strong tournament with Switzerland, and the winger's pace, directness and eye for goal make him an important attacking option once he links up with the squad. His delayed involvement is in line with the club's approach for players coming off deep World Cup runs. Ndoye is expected to be gradually reintegrated into training once he arrives in Nottingham.

Ibrahim Sangare - Signs new deal until 2029 Sangare has signed a new contract with Nottingham Forest that will keep him at the club until the summer of 2029, the club announced.

Impact The Ivory Coast international has been a mainstay in Forest's midfield since arriving from PSV in 2023, and the 2025/26 season was his most productive yet in a Forest shirt, making 43 appearances across all competitions. He featured 14 times in the Europa League and would have played in every match of that historic run had a minor injury not sidelined him for the semifinal, while adding 28 Premier League appearances with two goals and two assists. Known for his defensive ability, as well as his capacity to break up play and progress the ball forward, Sangare's influence at the club has steadily grown since his debut against Burnley in September 2023, and the new deal sees his stay on Trentside extended until June 2029.

He also chipped in defensively at the World Cup with two six interceptions, 13 tackles and six clearances in four games, and his return to club training now shifts the focus to preseason preparations as Forest looks to build on last season's difficult campaign.

Forest have already opened preseason with a win over Blackburn Rovers. Wood is expected to build toward match fitness as he begins preparations for the new campaign.

10 Premier League Transfers You May Have Missed During The World Cup

Nicolo Savona - Continuing rehab process Savona is progressing in his rehabilitation from a knee injury, though he will take a bit more time before returning to full training, according to coach Oliver Glasner, per Nottin...

Impact Savona missed Saturday's 2-0 preseason win over Notts County alongside Callum Hudson-Odoi and Murillo as all three continue their respective recoveries. Coach Oliver Glasner grouped him with Murillo in terms of timeline, noting both are progressing with their rehab but will need more time compared to Hudson-Odoi, who is expected to return quickest of the group. The coach stressed the importance of a careful approach given the nature of the injuries involved. Savona is expected to continue building up his workload as Nottingham Forest's preseason progresses.

Impact Murillo missed Saturday's 2-0 preseason win over Notts County alongside Callum Hudson-Odoi and Nicolo Savona as all three continue their respective recoveries. Manager Oliver Glasner said the defender is already training and completing good rehab sessions, with the next step being an increase in intensity as he works back toward normal training. The coach noted a more measured timeline for Murillo compared to Hudson-Odoi, who is expected to return quickest of the group. Murillo is expected to continue building up his workload as Nottingham Forest's preseason progresses.

Impact Hudson-Odoi underwent surgery for a thigh injury that ended his 2025-26 season early, and manager Oliver Glasner noted he is progressing quicker than teammates Murillo and Savona, who are also working through their own rehabilitation. The coach stressed the club will monitor his reaction carefully given the recent surgery before fully reintegrating him. Hudson-Odoi is expected to continue building toward full training in the coming days as Nottingham Forest's preseason progresses.

Impact Jesus has shown a strong work rate dropping deep to help build play while still offering a consistent threat in the final third, having already hit the post once in the match before scoring. His latest goal came from a well worked move, with Jair Cunha driving forward before combining with a teammate whose blocked effort fell into Jesus' path to finish. The forward is building strong momentum after also scoring in Saturday's opener. Jesus is expected to carry this form into the new season as a key attacking option for Nottingham Forest.

Ola Aina - Fit to start friendly Aina (undisclosed) is fit and in the starting squad for Saturday's friendly against Notts County, the club posted.

Impact Aina had ended last season on the sidelines with an undisclosed issue, finishing the campaign with 31 tackles, 25 interceptions and 71 clearances across 18 appearances when healthy. His return to the starting lineup for the preseason opener is an encouraging sign following his involvement in ball work earlier in the week, and a fully healthy start to preseason positions him to regain his regular role heading into the new season under new coach Oliver Glasner.

Callum Hudson-Odoi - Present for start of preseason Hudson-Odoi (quadriceps) is present for the start of preseason training as Nottingham Forest began preparations under new coach Oliver Glasner, the club announced.

Impact Hudson-Odoi underwent quadriceps surgery that had been expected to keep him out until this summer's preseason, and his involvement now suggests that timeline has held. He closed out last season with three goals and four assists across 30 appearances, including 21 starts, before the injury ended his campaign. His return marks a positive step, though how he responds physically after the surgery remains a key question for a player who is a central figure when at his best. Hudson-Odoi is expected to continue building toward full fitness as preseason progresses under manager Oliver Glasner.

Ola Aina - Back on the ball in preseason Aina (undisclosed) worked with the ball for the first time in preseason this week as Nottingham Forest began preparations for the new season, the club announced.

Impact Aina had ended last season on the sidelines with an undisclosed issue that ruled him out of the finale against Bournemouth, closing out the campaign with 31 tackles, 25 interceptions and 71 clearances across 18 appearances when fit. His involvement in this week's session is an encouraging sign after a frustrating end to the previous campaign. Forest had hoped to have him fully fit for the start of the new season, and this early participation points in that direction. Aina is expected to continue building toward full training as preseason progresses.

Dan Ndoye - Scores Switzerland's lone goal Ndoye scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 3-1 defeat against Argentina.

Impact Ndoye would fail to score early in the match on what looked to be nearly an unmissable attempt, being stopped by a huge block in the defense. However, he would fix his mistake in the 67th minute, as he would score to level the match. However, it would not be enough as the Swiss fell in extra time. In his World Cup campaign, the winger would record two goals on 16 shots to go along with two chances created and 11 crosses in his six appearances (five starts).

Dan Ndoye - Lively despite not scoring Ndoye registered two shots (one on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Tuesday's 0-0 (4-3) penalty shootout win versus Colombia.

Impact Ndoye was one of his team's major threats while featuring on the left flank, but his best attempt met Camilo Vargas' save in the first half of the match. The forward, who had started on the right wing in the previous game, moved to the opposite side this time. In any case, he could be a solid option to retain the spot for the remaining fixtures, looking to score his second goal or first assist in the competition.
