Following Nottingham Forest’s 1-1 draw with Brighton & Hove Albion, the team shared a series of images on social media that illustrated the afternoon’s events.
In one, smoke from the pre-game fireworks billows across the field as the Reds line up before kickoff at the Amex Stadium. Callum Hudson-Odoi, Ola Aina, Anthony Elanga, Nikola Milenkovic, and Alex Moreno are all positioned with their feet firmly planted and prepared for action.
And there’s Murillo after that. The Brazilian, positioned between Milenkovic and Moreno, gets caught leaping into the air. He has propelled himself to an impossible height, so it’s not just any old leap either.
Without a doubt, his career will continue in the same path. In fact, transfer rumors regarding the defender have quickly picked back up since the summer transfer market closed.
But good luck attempting to get rid of him in January. Although Murillo will eventually go, Forest will undoubtedly want to hold onto him for the entire season. The 22-year-old’s price tag will only rise in line with his pre-match leaps if he has another fantastic season Trentside.
In addition, the Reds are succeeding. There is no reason why they cannot be climbing the Premier League standings if they can maintain this team and even add to it during the winter transfer window.
They have a great central defense duo in Murillo and Milenkovic. The younger player has profited from having Serbia’s more seasoned international by his side.
A leader is c. On the field, he speaks with his teammates frequently, offering guidance and encouragement. The two have an amazing working relationship.
