Barrie McKay will have the chance to prove Nottingham Forest wrong next weekend, when his Swansea City side play host to the Reds at the Liberty Stadium in the Championship.

As announced on Swansea’s official website, the former Rangers winger is back in training after missing the match against Millwall due to a bout of sickness.

The Scotland international is available for the match against Forest, as stated on Swansea’s official website.

Proving Nottingham Forest

This is the first time that McKay will play against his former club Forest since leaving Aitor Karanka’s side in the summer transfer window.

According to The Nottingham Post, Swansea paid Championship rivals Forest a transfer fee of £1.5 million in order to secure the services of the 23-year-old.

The youngster moved to Forest from Rangers in the Scottish Premiership only in the summer of 2017.

The 23-year-old winger made 22 starts and four substitute appearances in the Championship for Forest last season, scoring five goals and providing seven assists in the process, according to WhoScored.

McKay, who has impressed for Swansea so far this season, will be looking to prove next weekend that Forest were wrong to sell him after just one season.
