Nottingham Forest sign Arsenal left-back Nuno Tavares on loan: Stats

What's the story

Arsenal left-back Nuno Tavares has joined Nottingham Forest on a season-long loan deal.

Forest will pay slightly more than £1m as a loan fee while the contract has a £12m buy option as well.

The Portuguese full-back grew out of favor at the Emirates Stadium and therefore he was loaned out last season to Olympique Marseille.

Here we decode his stats.

Context

Why does this story matter?

The Gunners expected Marseille to sign the player permanently but that didn't happen and the 23-year-old returned to North London with a lot of uncertainty.

He was not in Mikel Arteta's plans and hence was not included in their preseason tours nor was he on the bench for any of the Premier League games this season.

Therefore, his departure was expected.

Nottingham Forest will bring in more reinforcements

Forest manager Steve Cooper has five targets to land before the transfer window slams shut. Along with Tavares, they have also signed Brazilian defender Murillo from Corinthians for 13.75m.

They are keeping tabs on Benfica goalkeeper Odysseas Vlachodimos, who was earlier linked with Manchester United.

They are interested in a swap deal for Nicolas Dominguez from Bologna, who needs midfielder Remo Freuler in exchange.
