Hands up who thought Brice Samba would leave Nottingham Forest this summer, a month on from saving three penalties in the play-off shootout against Sheffield United.
If there were any hands up, then how many would stay raised if they thought the goalkeeper would end up in an increasingly bitter row over his contract, with Samba going public with grievances over the reporting of his situation. Samba took to Twitter on Sunday night to quote tweet a report from Foot Mercato journalist Santi Aouna, which disputed a Daily Mail article saying Forest had offered to double Samba's wages as he enters the final year of his deal.
Aouna says Forest have failed to offer him an increased salary and his likely replacement, Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson, is on three times as much money per week. Forest insist they have offered Samba a contract extension and want him to stay, although that position may well change now.
