Sport nationNOTTINGHAM FOREST OWNER EVANGELOS MARINAKIS CELEBRATES MAN CITY WIN
Nottingham Forest’s impressive 1-0 victory over Manchester City has sent shockwaves through the Premier League, and owner Evangelos Marinakis was on hand to congratulate his players on their triumph.
The Greek businessman, who has invested heavily in the club since taking over in 2017, was spotted in the tunnel after the match, high-fiving and patting his players on the back.
Marinakis’ enthusiasm is understandable, given the significance of the win. Forest’s victory, courtesy of a late Callum Hudson-Odoi strike, has propelled them up to third in the Premier League table, seven points clear of fourth-placed Manchester City.
The win is a testament to the team’s togetherness and spirit, which has been fostered by Marinakis’ commitment to creating a “family environment” at the club.
According to Rio Ferdinand, who was commentating on the match for TNT Sports, Forest’s success is built on their unity and teamwork. “It’s the togetherness that’s built at the City Ground,” Ferdinand said. “The owner is at the forefront of it.”
Marinakis’ investment in the club has been significant, with £162 million spent over the past seven years. While there was initial criticism of his spending and the squad overhaul following promotion to the Premier League, the results are now speaking for themselves.
The signing of Hudson-Odoi from Chelsea for £5 million is a prime example of Marinakis’ shrewd recruitment strategy. The player’s goal against Manchester City was a decisive moment in the match, and his overall performance has been a key factor in Forest’s success this season.
Other notable signings, such as Chris Wood and Matz Sels, have also made significant contributions to the team’s fortunes.
As Forest looks to build on their victory and push for European qualification, Marinakis’ leadership and commitment to the club will be crucial. With his vision and investment, Forest are well on their way to achieving their goals.
The club’s next match against Ipswich Town will be a crucial test of their mettle, but with Marinakis at the helm, Forest fans can be confident that their team will continue to thrive.
