Nottingham Forest's latest addition to Steve Cooper's squad, Harry Toffolo, claims the opportunity to play Premier League football something he simply could not turn down.
Toffolo has become the club's ninth summer arrival this summer as Steve Cooper aims to bolster his squad ahead of the club's return to the Premier League after 23 years outside of the top-flight. And more incomings are expected in the coming weeks as the Reds continue their pre-season preparations.
Left-back Toffolo will now make his bid to claim a spot in Cooper's first XI ahead of an opening day trip to Newcastle United. Speaking of his move to the City Ground, the 26-year-old said: "I'm extremely delighted to be here, to be able to join a football club with this much stature is fantastic and to have the opportunity to play in the Premier League is something I couldn't turn down.
