Nottingham Forest boss Nuno: Brentford isn't only Toney

Nottingham Forest boss Nuno has admitted injury concerns facing Brentford tomorrow.

Nuno is also determined not to be obsessed by Ivan Toney's return with Brentford from long-term suspension.

He said: "We have to balance the squad due to the absences and the numbers in the squad.

"This is the work we are doing.

"We hope [Anthony] Elanga will be back soon, we are not sure yet, but tomorrow for sure he is not available.

"Morgan [Gibbs-White] already did his scan. Unfortunately, he has an injury - he is recovering, he is getting better, but for now he is not available. One more week hopefully.

"We have Felipe, Taiwo [Awoniyi], Divock [Origi], that's enough, more than enough."

On Toney, he added: "I know him. He is a good player and a very important player for Brentford, but Brentford is not only Ivan Toney.

"It's a good team so we expect a very tough match tomorrow."
