Defender Omar Richards was left out of Nottingham Forest’s 25-man Premier League squad after suffering another setback.
The former Bayern Munich man is yet to make his debut for the Reds, having been sidelined since the summer with a hairline fracture of the leg. It had been hoped he would soon be involved in full training, but he will now spend the next few months focusing on his recovery.
And with Richards still unavailable, he was not included in Forest’s squad list submitted to the Premier League following the closure of the January transfer window. Giulian Biancone, who is out for the season with an ACL injury, Steve Cook and Lewis O’Brien also failed to make the cut, while Lyle Taylor, Cafu and Harry Arter remain off the list.
