Nottingham Forest ‘banish’ duo from training and transfer list them

Nottingham Forest have reportedly ‘banished’ club captain Joe Worrall and fellow defender Scott McKenna from first-team training, it has been claimed. The long-serving duo have reportedly been told to report to training at a different time to their senior colleagues and will undergo their duties away from their team-mates.

Worrall and McKenna were key players during Forest’s promotion campaign in 2021-22. They featured prominently in the club’s first season back in the Premier League in two decades.

However, Worrall has made just six appearances this season while McKenna has appeared only five times. A spate of new signings have seen them demoted to back-up roles.

It is reported that no reason has been given for the centre-back pair being told to stay away from the first-team squad. According to the Daily Mail, there is no behavioural issue involved in the decision to make them train away from Steve Cooper’s squad.

Both players will reportedly be made available for transfer in the January window. It is believed that they have no future at the club.
