Super Eagles right back, Ola Aina has assured supporters of Nottingham Forest that the club will maintain their English Premier League (EPL) status at the end of the season.
With six more games to play in the league, the Tricky Trees currently occupy 17th position on the EPL log table and will face tough games against Wolverhampton Wanderers, Chelsea and Manchester City before the season ends.
Forest have also been hit with a four-point deduction for breaching profit and sustainability rules which has affected their position on the log.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have already appealed the verdict and the outcome of their appeal might eventually determine their fate.
