Guy Moussi reacts in just one word to latest Brennan Johnson/Nottingham Forest transfer update

Nottingham Forest have had to fend off interest in young talent Brennan Johnson for most of the January transfer window and after Brentford’s latest bid for his services was rejected, Guy Moussi has taken to Twitter to react.

The former player, who featured in over 100 games at the City Ground during his time there, spent six years with Forest and grew to become somewhat of a fan favourite at the club.

The same could be said now for Johnson who, despite his age, is already winning plaudits for his superb showings this season and his contributions for the club in front of goal. In fact, he has become a pivotal player for Steve Cooper and the side are desperate to hold onto him.

His displays though have caught the eye of some clubs higher up the table – and one such team is Brentford, who have launched bid after bid in a desperate attempt to try and sign him.

However, yet another Bees bid has been snubbed as reported by The Telegraph journalist John Percy – and now former player Guy Moussi has responded to the report on Twitter, claiming it is ‘amazing’ that Forest have rejected their advances.
