Head coach Steve Cooper says he has yet to decide who will be Nottingham Forest captain for the coming season.
Lewis Grabban wore the armband last term, with Cooper valuing the experienced striker’s role on and off the pitch as he was a key presence in the dressing room. But the 34-year-old confirmed his departure from the City Ground last week, having been unable to agree a new contract with the club.
That leaves a vacancy to be filled ahead of the Reds’ return to the Premier League. As vice-captain, defender Joe Worrall skippered the side when Grabban was sidelined with injury, and has led the team out in their three friendlies so far this summer.
