Forest have been battling Napoli all summer for Swiss international who has now been announced by the club on Thursday afternoon. The 24-year-old scored eight goals and provided four assists in 30 Serie A appearances last season for Bologna in what is an exciting addition to Forest’s forward line.
Speaking to the club website, Ndoye admits that picking Forest was an easy choice and that he took no time in deciding to join the club.
“I am really happy to have signed for the Club. It is a really exciting time at Forest and I knew straight away that I wanted to be a part of the project. It’s a really ambitious team with a fantastic history and I can’t wait to get started.”
Chief Football Officer, Ross Wilson also commented on the deal as he welcomed the young forward to the side who will be competing in the Europa League next season.
“Dan is an exciting new addition to our squad and a player we have tracked extensively over a long period of time. We are delighted that he joins Nottingham Forest and continues his own ambitious journey here with us.”
Ndoye has been a key target for the Reds for some time and they have beaten the likes of Napoli and Premier League rivals for his signature this summer in what is an excellent piece of business for the side.
