Despite the arrival of several new signings, much to the delight of us, the supporters, it seems that our transfer business is poised to continue. The latest name to be linked with a move to the City Ground is Liverpool’s Shey Ojo.
As Nottinghamshire Live reports, we’ve been linked with a move for Liverpool’s industrious winger, Shey Ojo. The 21-year-old featured prominently for Fulham last season as they attained promotion to the top-flight of English football.
In 24 appearances for the Whites, the winger scored four goals, and he’s reportedly valued at £10M by the Reds.
Here’s how Forest supporters have reacted to the rumours on Twitter.
Heard A Rumour That We Are Interested In Shey Ojo.That Would Be A Good Back-up Signing To Goncalves,Dias Etc.#NFFC

Good player. Quick and direct. Would like to see him in a Forest shirt

From what I’ve seen of Ojo he looks like a talent. Hope we do sign him from Liverpool. #nffc

He's got all the talent but he's a bit 'head-down'. Coach that out of him and you've got yourself a winger.

Don’t really think we need him, got enough wingers if we count soudani as a right sided winger

Not really

Verdict:
Following the arrival of Goncalves, Dias and Carvalho, it seems somewhat indulgent and unnecessary to sign another winger. His signing would certainly augment our attacking options, but we must spend wisely and logically, as opposed to signing too many players in a position that is well-covered.
