Nottingham Forest fans wowed by ‘huge news’ after triple-your-money deal agreed

Tue 5 November 2024 9:24, UK

Nottingham Forest fans believe the club could achieve European football this season after former Arsenal sporting director Edu Gaspar agreed to join.

Football Insider revealed that Edu has quit the Gunners after agreeing to a “triple-your-money deal” with the group run by Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis.

Edu is set to become the head of football operations for Marinakis and will oversee his three clubs – Forest, Olympiacos, and Rio Ave.

The Brazilian transfer guru has played a key role in helping to make the Gunners title contenders by securing top signings such as Declan Rice and William Saliba.

Edu joins Forest with the club currently above Arsenal in the Premier League table after the opening 10 games of the season.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are third place and have only lost once to this point, while boasting the second-best defensive record in the league.

Nottingham Forest fans expect the club to continue progressing off the pitch

After an impressive start to the season on the pitch, supporters are now pleased with Forest’s latest move off the pitch as well.

Fans have claimed that “something very special” is taking place, while others believe the club is “back.”

This is huge news for #NFFC. A multi club model can be so important for all sorts of reasons and by most accounts Edu is a very handy operator behind the scenes.

Would expect Forest to take an even bigger interest in the South American market in the comings transfer windows https://t.co/hVcm1fhkaC

Don’t underestimate how massive this is.

Was a roaring success at Arsenal and people in the football world are saying how crazy it is that he’s left them. Got them from out of Europe to the cusp of a league title.

Love Marinakis’ ambition. Exciting times to be a red 🙌 #NFFC https://t.co/KuqfFcLVMO

Something very special seems to be happening at #NFFC – complete alignment between the owner, manager, staff, squad & fans.

NES doubters are converted (inc me), Yates haters have seen the light, & the dressing room is buzzing!

I’ve gone for 6 from the next 6 too, that would be better than some people think and would see us on 25pts after 16 games still looking for a possible 30pts at the halfway stage which would be absolutely amazing #nffc any more and Europe is definitely on this season
