Nottingham Forest have activated the one-year extension in Ola Aina’s contract.

Aina is now expected to remain at the City Ground until the end of the 2025/26 season.

Forest are still keen to tie him down to a long-term contract following an impressive 2024/25 campaign.

The Nigeria international scored twice and registered one assist in 35 league appearances for the Tricky Trees last season.

Aina moved to the City Ground on a free transfer in 2023 after severing ties with Serie A club Torino.

He has made 57 league appearances for the Reds.
