EPL: Ola Aina sees Nottingham Forest finishing in the top four
Super Eagles defender Ola Aina has said Nottingham Forest will keep working hard to secure a top-four spot in the Premier League this season.
The Tricky Trees currently occupy the third position on the table.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side defeated West Ham United 3- 0 at the City Ground on Saturday.
Forest have won five, drawn four and lost once in 10 league outings this season.
Aina said they will work hard to secure a place in the UEFA Champions League.
“We are taking every game as it comes and we’re just working hard. That’s the formula, just work hard and take every game as it comes,” Aina told Optus Sport.
Forest manager, Santo also lauded Ola Aina’s stunning strike in the club’s 3-0 victory over West Ham United.
Aina fired home from outside the box in the 78th minute of the encounter.
The goal was the defender’s first in the Premier League this season.
The full-back was last on target for Forest in the 2-0 victory over Aston Villa in November 2023.
“This is a very positive and beautiful goal from Ola Aina,” he remarked.
“So we are delighted that almost every player starts to get the belief that he can help the team with goals.”
