Danilo is aiming to build on an “above expectations” start to his time at Nottingham Forest as he prepares for the 2023/24 season.
After arriving at the City Ground in January from Palmeiras, the Brazilian took a little while to adapt. The language barrier, in particular, was a challenge. But once he found his feet, he showed the star quality which has got Reds fans excited for the progress he can make.
He seems to revel in having his own chant, too, having enjoyed conducting the crowd in a rendition when survival was celebrated after victory over Arsenal in May. Danilo played a key role in Forest getting to that point, scoring in three successive games and catching the eye amid some crucial results.
