Nottingham Forest send Evangelos Marinakis message after Olympiacos statement

Nottingham Forest have sent a message to Evangelos Marinakis after the club’s owner shared that he had contracted coronavirus.

It has already been a busy season for Marinakis , having helped bankroll the Reds’ significant summer overhaul. The Greek also handed manager Steve Cooper a new three-year deal earlier this month, brought in Filippo Giraldi as sporting director, and sacked recruitment duo George Syrianos and Andy Scott.

However, it has been confirmed, via Greek club Olympiacos, that Marinakis has tested positive for covid-19. It is the second time that Forest ’s owner has contracted the virus, having first tested positive in March 2020 , prior to the league season being suspended until June that year.
