Gustavo Scarpa quickly impresses for Forest in friendly

New signing Gustavo Scarpa is already making an impact for Nottingham Forest.

Having arrived from Palmeiras, it hasn't taken him long to make an impression at Forest.

A midweek friendly against Atromitos took place behind closed doors, so it is difficult to really judge how he did. But that he weighed in with two assists suggests he was at the heart of the action.

Coming to the Premier League has been a long-held ambition for Scarpa. His enthusiasm and bubbly personality already comes across loud and clear.

"I'm very happy to be here, it's a dream for me," he said after signing. It's always been an ambition since I was a little kid to play in Europe, and my dream is to play in the Premier League."
