Nottingham Forest striker Chris Wood is struggling to be fit for Saturday's visit of West Ham.

"Morgan is one of the players inside that group that we have to assess and see how he is. Chris (Wood) also, and Elliot and Jota. They have knocks," Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo said.

"It was a tough one for Morgan; a painful one. He is better now. He is going to plan. The squad has the solutions we have to find. But it is not the same without him, because he brings us something different.
