Steve Cooper sent Nottingham Forest transfer demand as Kienan Davis continues brilliant form

Nottingham Forest fans have sent a clear transfer demand to boss Steve Cooper and the club as Kienan Davis continued his brilliant form for the Reds.

The 24-year-old striker has scored five goals and contributed two assists since he joined Forest in January on a loan move from Aston Villa. His fine form continued on Saturday when he proved to be a constant nuisance in the 2-0 win over Birmingham City, including scoring the opening goal against the Blues.

Davis has previously commented on his current "love" for life at the City Ground. Asked if he would like to stay beyond the summer, the 24-year-old said: “Yeah, of course. This is the best I’ve played and the most I’ve enjoyed my football in my whole entire life, so it’s just great to be here.

“Obviously the manager is a big part of it, but the dressing room has also got the right balance of older and young players - like Cookie (Steve Cook), and then young players like myself, Djed (Spence) and Brennan (Johnson).

“It’s just a great mixture. And then the manager lets us express ourselves and be ourselves. We have a bit of banter about that, about loving it here.

“But as you can tell by the way we’re playing, you can tell us loan signings all love it here. It’s good at the moment. We’re just enjoying it. You don’t get many clubs like this, especially in the Championship. They shouldn’t be here.

“For me to get my opportunity to be able to express myself and play good, especially for a team like this, is just more than I could ask for.”

Having provided another brilliant performance in the 2-0 win over Birmingham City, Forest fans are desperate for Cooper to turn Davis' loan move permanent.

This is what some Forest fans have said about Davis on social media...

Stephen McCubbin: Lad is a modern day Collymore.

Christopher Peacock: He deffo needs signing not matter what.

Tim Wakeman: FOREST have we ever had so many good attacking options on the bench!

Richard Dyson: He's better than Lukaku at the moment.

Jacques Prince: Are Forest going to try and keep some of those on loan players? Seems like they've been a real asset. I hope they also don't sell any of those good players too.

David Perkins: Controversial opinion, but I believe Grabban is third choice now behind Davis and Surridge. But what a headache for Cooper to have!

Elliott Brown: Whoever has overseen recruitment needs a pay-rise... mckenna, cook, spence, Davis, Zick, garner... incredible work!!

Jake: Not a perfect performance but got 3 points so I’m not complaining at all. Sign Davis immediately.
