Brentford boss in unprompted Nottingham Forest transfer comments after '£45m' deal

Brentford boss Thomas Frank says Nottingham Forest's big summer spending shows the difference in budget between the two clubs in the Premier League.

Forest have made a 16th addition to their squad in the form of Morgan Gibbs-White, in a deal worth a reported over £40 million after add-ons. Meanwhile that figure is what the Bees have spent on all five of their signings this window: Aaron Hickey, Keane Lewis-Potter, Thomas Strakosha, Ben Mee and Mikkel Damsgaard.

The west London side have the second lowest budget in the top-flight. In a press conference, Frank said: "Nottingham Forest have spent £45m on Morgan Gibbs-White. That’s the same amount we spent on all our five signings and that’s what we are fighting against.
