Worse for Hwang Ui-jo, who is excluded from the opening game
Nottingham Forest is set to recruit new striker Eddie Nkedia. Hwang Ui-jo's position in Nottingham is expected to be narrower.
"Nottingham is about to recruit Arsenal striker Nkedia," the British 'Telegraph' reported on the 21st (local time). "Negotiations were not easy due to the contract period and weekly salary, but Nottingham's owner Evangelos Marinakis and Arsenal's director Edu Gaspar have had extensive talks over the past 48 hours, and an agreement on the transfer fee is imminent."
Nkedia, a former Arsenal youth player, has steadily increased her chances to play since debuting as a pro. However, she has not displayed explosive power as a striker. She has never scored double digits, and only scored five goals and two assists in 27 matches in the league last season. She stayed on the bench until the end of the opening match of the English Premier League in 2024-2025.
It is safe to say that he has moved away from Mikel Arteta's plan. However, Nottingham reached out to Nkedia just in time. Searching for a new striker in the summer transfer market, Nottingham targeted Nkedia as its No. 1 target and is close to making a move.메이저놀이터
It is unfavorable news for Hwang. There is no place in Nottingham because a new striker has joined and been pushed down the ranks. Hwang joined Nottingham back in 2022 with a dream of making his debut in the EPL. However, it has been a continuation of his loan career. Last season, he returned to Nottingham after spending a loan spell with Alania Spor (Turkiye).
However, there was no room for Hwang to play in Nottingham. Hwang did not even make the roster for the opening game of the EPL. "Nunu Espiritu Santo of Nottingham intends to add tension to Chris Wood and Tywo Awoniyi by recruiting Nkedia," said Telegraph without mentioning Hwang, referring to the rivalry between Nottingham's strikers.
