Nottingham Forest handed potential transfer boost as Keinan Davis 'at home' at City Ground

Striker Keinan Davis has felt “at home” at Nottingham Forest - and that could open the door for a potential return to the City Ground.

Since signing in January, the Aston Villa loanee has played a key part in helping the Reds secure promotion to the Premier League. Having only returned from a hamstring injury a fortnight ago, he was in the starting line-up at Wembley on Sunday as Huddersfield Town were beaten 1-0.

"It was really exciting. I really enjoyed it.

"I think that's the third time he's been to Wembley, so for him to play this time and experience all of it was really nice, especially for us as well. He spotted us in the crowd and was waving and sending love hearts.

"He has really enjoyed it at Forest. He felt at home at Forest. His game really came together there.

"The manager... what a manager! He's brilliant. He knows how to get the best out of the young players, it was really good seeing what he's done with Keinan.

"He loves the supporters, he loves the team, he loves the coach, he loves everything. He felt at home at Forest. They have got the best out
