Chris Wood - knee

Nottingham Forest striker Chris Wood (33) remains a late fitness concern ahead of Sunday’s Premier League clash with Bournemouth. Manager Sean Dyche confirmed that the New Zealand international is still recovering from a knee injury and that the club is awaiting further updates from the medical team.

Speaking to reporters, Dyche said: “Woody, we’re still waiting on news. It’s settling, but how quickly it can settle, we’re waiting for news on that,” per Jak Netting of Vavel.

Wood, who has already missed Forest’s midweek Europa League fixture, will undergo further testing before a final decision is made on his availability. If passed fit, he is expected to return to the starting lineup, having started all but one league game this season. (Source: GROK)
