Mark Warburton has been named as Nottingham Forest’s new manager.
Nottingham Forest owner Fawaz Al-Hasawi has told the Jim White Show, which was broadcast on TalkSPORT on 14th March, that Mark Warburton will have money to spend next summer.
Warburton has been appointed at Forest on a two-and-a-half year contract, as the Midlands club look to avoid relegation.
Forest are currently in 19th place in the Championship table, with their form worryingly poor.
The Reds lost to Burton Albion in their most recent outing, and they are now looking nervously over their shoulders.
There is a realisation that Forest will need to invest, even if they do manage to beat the drop this season.
And Al-Hasawi has insisted that Warburton will have money to spend, if he keeps Forest in the Championship.
“I just signed five players in this window. All the managers, when they have been here, I have supported them,” he said.
“Of course, I will support Mark. I will support him with everything that I have, because I would love to see Nottingham Forest in the Premier League one day.”
Warburton’s first match in charge of Forest comes this weekend, when they take on Derby County in the East Midlands derby.
If Forest fail to win the match, they could slip into the bottom three of the Championship table – which would be extremely worrying, with the season reaching its climax now.
