The player's journey to the top has been remarkable since his initial loan spell at Bristol Rovers in 2022. Having progressed through the academy at St James' Park, he formally joined Forest in July 2024, in a transfer worth £35m. He quickly established himself as a vital cog in their setup, amassing 41 appearances across all competitions this season. With two goals and three assists to his name, including 10 outings in the Europa League, his durability and tactical intelligence have made him a standout performer on both the domestic and European stage.
