Let’s hope he can, Arsenal must be happy or he wouldn’t be back in full training.
On paper he is an upgrade on Lowe.
He had a very good loan in Germany a couple of years ago, and if he stays fit will be very good for us.
Let's hope it goes well for him and Forest.
Being injured must be so frustrating for any player.
If he can buy Forest some time over the December period to get Lowe up and running again we could have both competing for the LB spot.

Osei-Tutu is a right back so I would expect him to compete with Spence. Not sure I would agree that he is an upgrade on Lowe but then again I haven't seen Tutu play much to be honest.

Tutu will provide competition for both fullback positions. He's good enough. He's got quality and pace. RB isn't currently the problem position, LB is. Expect Tutu to be deployed there in the absence of more appropriate contenders for the LB birth.
Regardless, Forest need to get serious about owning their own players for both fullback positions.
January could be a thorny window to navigate regarding both fullback positions. As could Garner and Zinc Man for the midfield areas. Recalled players could be very damaging for Forest if they don't get ahead of the curve.
I'd expect Steve Cooper and Dane to be well prepared this time.

Tutu out for 2 months.
Mighten out for 2 months too.
Do we actually have a need any more for Tutu? I thinking the loan slot is now more valuable to us than the player. It'd be tough on the young lad but imo he needs sending back now.

So much for a so called contact injury then. That was a load of BS!
I agree with you Pap send him back. I am sorry for the lad but we are not a nursing home.

Have to cancel Tutu’s loan in January. Feel for the lad but we can’t carry a passenger, especially one which takes up a loan spot.

More concerned with Mighten being out, we are looking a bit thin on forward options right now, is Lolley still out too? knee ligaments, reckon 2 months is optimistic.
As for Tutu there is no limit on loans just that only 5 can be in a matchday squad so it isn’t necessarily a problem. I very much hope we arent picking up his wages now though.

Yep. Can't afford passengers. It is disappointing and feel for the lad but off back to Arsenal you go.
Left and Right back needed urgently in Jan. Mighten is also a huge blow.

A couple of fullbacks in Jan'. Mandatory. We can't keep carrying on like this. It will sink Forest's best chance to get to the play offs in years.
We'll need a winger too.

Gutted for Tutu and Mighten thought they were both looking good.

Lowe on the mend and could be back for Barnsley on 3rd according to DT.
