Matt Turner's Future Uncertain After Missing Game
Matt Turner's absence in Nottingham Forest's Premier League opener against Bournemouth has sparked discussions.
Many people may be behind the pecking order in the Nottingham Forest squad, but the absence of U.S. national team goalkeeper Matt Turner appeared strikingly significant following the tier one side’s Premier League opening game against Bournemouth. The situation raised a few eyebrows because the player, who moved to the City Ground last summer in a £10-million transfer from Arsenal, has been third-choice goalkeeper for his team. His first role at the City Ground had been initially successful, but a few errors along the way eventually forced the team’s management to put him on the bench following the arrival of Matz Sels from Strasbourg in February. However, the player faced further competition this summer following the arrival of Carlos Miguel from Corinthians. As a result, Turner did not even make the bench to support his teammates in Nottingham Forest’s opening game against Bournemouth on Saturday. But with a few days remaining to the end of the transfer window in August, which should be the next step for Turner? According to reports from CBS Sports, some clubs in Bundesliga and La Liga are in talks with the American goalkeeper. This position may indicate the start of the player’s improvements following his experiences in Nottingham Forest.
