Head coach Steve Cooper says Nottingham Forest “will improve any area” if the right opportunities arise during the transfer window.
Twenty-two players came through the City Ground doors in the summer as the club prepared for life in the Premier League. However, the Reds have been hit hard by injuries since then, and they also acknowledge improvements are needed to aid their bid for survival.
Free agent Gustavo Scarpa is available to make his debut at Southampton on Wednesday night, having been ineligible to feature against Chelsea after linking up with the squad last month. Further additions are expected, though, with Forest understood to be looking to bolster their options at centre-back, in midfield and in attack.
