Claudio Yacob has praised the squad Aitor Karanka has put together at Nottingham Forest on the club’s official website.

Yacob was only brought to Forest yesterday, following the expiration of his contract at West Bromwich Albion.

And the Argentine midfielder has already been impressed with the squad that the Reds have put together.

He said: “There is a very good squad here with big experience and also a lot of young talent, so there is a good mix. Hopefully we can achieve some good success.”

Yacob could step straight into Forest’s line-up, following his arrival, but competition is fierce.

Forest have eight midfielders competing for just two spots in Karanka’s starting line-up.

The Spanish boss has been keen to bolster his options, but Forest should be stronger for it.

The Reds are currently in 14th place in the Championship table, with their next match after the international break coming against Swansea City.
