Super Eagles fullback, Ola Aina expresses confidence in Nottingham Forest's ability to secure their Premier League status despite facing tough challenges towards the end of the season, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
Currently occupying 17th position in the EPL table, the Tricky Trees are set to confront formidable opponents including Wolverhampton Wanderers, Chelsea, and Manchester City in their remaining fixtures.
Complicating matters, Forest received a four-point deduction for breaching profit and sustainability rules, impacting their position in the standings.
However, Nuno Espirito Santo's side has appealed the verdict, with the outcome potentially shaping their fate at season's end.
Despite these obstacles, Aina remains resolute, stating to the Nottingham Post, "I don’t see the team going down."
With 17 league appearances under his belt this season, the versatile defender emphasizes the importance of improved performances and securing positive results to ensure survival.
