Nottingham Forest striker Sam Surridge is making progress in his recovery from a groin injury as he aims to be fit for the start of the Premier League season.
After playing a key part in the Reds’ promotion success, the 23-year-old missed the celebration event in Market Square as he went to Germany for an operation. He has been working hard on his rehabilitation over the summer and is currently with his teammates for a training camp in Spain.
Surridge says he is keen not to put a timeframe on his return. However, he is eager to be available for the opening game of the campaign, when Steve Cooper’s side make the trip to face Newcastle United.
