Owner Evangelos Marinakis' backing in the transfer market has come as little surprise to Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper.
A summer rebuilding project was always going to be on the cards at the City Ground, following promotion to the Premier League. And the Greek businessman has sanctioned a significant spending spree which is already well into nine figures, with 17 additions made so far - two of which have headed straight out on loan.
But cash has not just been splashed on the playing squad. Marinakis has also shown his commitment by spending millions around the City Ground redevelopment plans, and Forest are improving their training facilities, too.
