Nottingham Forest defeated Millwall 2-1 in a pre-season friendly Friday night, highlighting the Reds’ Premier League ambitions.
During this 90-minute run-out, the Lions’ only strategy was to kick the Forest team into oblivion. However, Forest triumphed thanks to goals from Chris Wood and Callum Hudson-Odoi, who continued their success from the previous season.
Nuno Espirito Santo saw it as an opportunity to reassess his entire squad at the Pinatar Arena in Spain.
Sarah Clapson thrilled with the Nottingham Forest kid.
Eric da Silva Moreira arrived at the City Ground as an unknown quantity, but that may not last long.
When the adolescent was signed from St Pauli, he was given a large interview and announcement, implying that he would be promoted to the first team. He’s now with the senior group in Spain, and he got another chance to shine as a right-back last night – and he delivered!
Clapson was impressed in her Nottinghamshire Live story, saying, “Looks to have the makings of a real talent. Forest might have a diamond on their hands. He made some excellent crosses and tried his luck in front of the goal before the break.”
Moreira has appeared in all three pre-season games so far, and it appears like he will remain with the first squad rather than joining the B-squad.
Moreira will offer healthy competition.
Neco Williams’ job at the City Ground is far from secure, despite his decent performance last season. The Welsh performer is frequently caught behind, and as a young player, he has flaws that he needs to work on. With that in mind, Moreira has a decent chance of seeing action during the 2024/25 season.
The German under-17 World Cup winner appears to be a player with a lot of potential, and the club has already made an interesting summer addition.
