I was surprised he left Newcastle because I knew how much he was valued there, by fans and the people around the club. We were very lucky to get him': Chris Wood full of praise for Nottingham Forest team-mate

Chris Wood has been instrumental in Nottingham Forest's impressive rise to third place in the Premier League this season. With 14 goals to his credit, Wood has thrived, enhanced by the arrival of his former Newcastle teammate Elliot Anderson. Manager Nuno Espirito Santo has transformed the team, emphasizing the significance of players like Murillo and Morgan Gibbs-White. Wood expresses admiration for Anderson’s swift adjustment and contributions, stating that fans already adore him and noting the fortunate circumstances of his transfer from Newcastle, which further bolsters Forest's campaign.

I knew straight away that he was going to be a terrific player for us. We were very lucky to get him. He’s already shown his quality.
