Nottingham Forest forward Diogo Goncalves caught the eye for Portugal’s under-21 side last night.

Nottingham Forest fans have been left excited about the damage which Diogo Goncalves could do for them this season, after his display for his country last night.

Goncalves was selected to start for Portugal’s under-21 side against Bosnia, and he scored a wonderful goal in the fixture.

The jinking winger danced his way around three opponents, before slamming the ball into the back of the net.

And Forest fans don’t feel they have seen the best of their summer signing at the City Ground yet.

Goncalves has played just twice for Forest in the Championship, and he has only made a very limited impact.

The wide-man has not provided a goal or an assist in a Forest shirt yet.

The 21-year-old does have time on his side though, as he looks to adapt to English football.

Forest are next in action at the weekend, when they take on Norwich City.
