Nottingham Forest captain Joe Worrall is now a very strong target for Championship side Middlesbrough in January.
Boss Michael Carrick is keen to strengthen his backline and is keen to give Worrall some regular game time. The Reds player has not played since coming on as a 20-minute substitute against Luton.On that occasion, Worrall was on the pitch as Forest surrendered a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 against the Hatters.He was the one who committed Elijah Adebayo’s second goal and hasn’t been seen since. It’s all a bit of a strange situation around Worrall. Once the new long-term contract is signed, the defender could now be on the run. According to The Sun, Boro want Worrall to sign a loan-to-buy deal and they can make their move when the window reopens. Forest Worrall star has not been part of the matchday squad since October and now appears to be on loan at the City Ground.He was sidelined again on Friday night as the Reds lost 2-0 to Tottenham at Trentside. Worrall must leave ForestUltimately, it is time for Worrall to consider leaving Forest and, in truth, it would suit all parties.The player has very rarely reached the required level in the Premier League. Maybe Cooper knows now. He hasn’t been able to get a look at it in the last two weeks, although Cooper has reverted to his three centre-back system.Worrall has only played six games this season, five of which came in the first five games of the 2023/24 season. The defender played 223 matches for the club. Even though he considers Forest his club, he certainly wants to play regularly.
