Those aren't great numbers for Maddison either.Maddison is strangely underrated by a fair portion of our fanbase.

They scored nearly as many goals as us last season.I would assume it would be lower given Forest play low block/counter attacking football.

I'd expect a player who was predominantly a central attacking mid to have better numbers if he were an influential player.
How would we be caught red handed? We wouldn't speak to the player directly. We'd probably have an agent contact his agent.
It seems bs anyway. "Secret" release clause? A club could bid a £100mil, then forest don't tell the player. It's ca doing negotiations not eric hall.
If he turned up for a medical without forest accepting the bid maybe.
Do you really believe that Levy would leave us open to that? It's just the Forest chairman throwing a strop.Partly, but if we have been caught red handed, then Christ it could really troubling. The Prem would love to do us, as they did with Chelsea before covid.

Spoke with him yesterday apparently.Surely only a matter of time before Marinakis ditches NES after he let CL spot slip and replaces him with the national hero who knows how to get the job done…

Postecoglou celebrated at Greek Super League 2025/26 season draw - Neos Kosmos
Ange Postecoglou served as the guest of honour at the draw for the 2025/25 Greek Super League, with the Greek Australian coach celebrated with an award by the League's President, Evangelos Marinakis, in recognition of his stellar accomplishments.neoskosmos.com
I'm just irritated these little admin issues can foul things up. Wrong teamsheet submission etc. not so long ago and more.Maybe the player has some kind of confidentiality clause where they can't divulge details of their contract. But proving this, and how information is shared is impossible. As for players and clubs talking, we once dug our heels in about this too. But now, it seems accepted that agents and clubs talk...not sure you can stop that with contractual obligations.
Well DL has moved (as endlessly requested) well away from this area of operations.....then this incompetence ensues.Do you really believe that Levy would leave us open to that? It's just the Forest chairman throwing a strop.
Ahhh... it all makes sense now.Spoke with him yesterday apparently.
Independent reporting.
Important bit.
"As result, the deal appears to be on hold for now, although Forest are powerless to stop it happening if Spurs go through the proper channels."

Nottingham Forest consider legal action over Tottenham’s pursuit of Gibbs-White
Spurs are understood to have triggered a £60m release clasuse for the England internationalwww.independent.co.uk
l
It seems to me Forest can either suck it up and take the £60 million
Or
Take it to court, losing, being counter sued and having a player not playing till Jan/no 60 million to rebuild this summer
The Forest chairman had a public on field blow up with his own manager last season....he's all about the optics, when things are reflecting badly on him is my guess.
