Son of Forest legend Walker makes senior debut

The son of former Nottingham Forest and Sampdoria defender Des Walker has made his first team debut for Forest.

Striker Tyler Walker, 18, replaced winger Chris Burke in second-half added time at the City Ground on Wednesday.

"I was desperate to get him on and he showed some lovely little touches," Forest manager Dougie Freedman told BBC Radio Nottingham.

"He is so professional and a credit to his family that young boy."
