Forest looking at a player called Loris Benito? Available on a free and apparently trained with the team this week at Lb, anyone know anything although I think Ioannou would be a decent shout.

Maybe they're getting him fit so he can sign on 1st Jan. Or is he a feee agent who can sign now?

I am expecting us to offer Benito a contract. He needs to get sorted and playing quickly if he wants to go to the World Cup with Switzerland.

I'd be happy for him to use us as a vehicle to get to the world cup. Both sides will benefit.

Free agent apparently.

I was wondering why Forest couldn't find a decent enough free agent to cover LB vs an ageing Bong.  Even if it was a play per play get fit benefit both parties kind of deal.

Reading did find Andy Caroll after all.  And he's given them 'something.'

It's crisis management until you can get to an actual transfer window.

If it he's good enough to restore balance to the force at Forest, I'm for it.  (It's Cooper's call.  I guess he can spot a decent player...)

It allows our midfield general in Colback to get back doing what he does best.
