Super Eagles defender, Ola Aina, has revealed that Callum Hudson-Odoi is the most challenging Nottingham Forest player to defend against in one-on-one situations during training.

In a quick-fire session shared on the club’s official social media, Aina stated, “Callum, you know what he’s gonna do, but it’s kind of hard to stop it.”

Ola Aina’s goal against West Ham

The Nigerian international, once underrated, has recently emerged as one of the Premier League’s most impressive full-backs. His performances have been stellar, both defensively and offensively.

Offensively, Aina scored his first goal of the season with a powerful strike in Forest’s 3-0 victory over West Ham United. Defensively, he has successfully marked top-tier wingers like Luis Díaz and Jadon Sancho.

Aina’s impressive form has made him a top January transfer target for clubs like AS Roma and AC Milan, who are seeking to bolster their defensive options. Versatile, Aina can play both right-back and left-back positions.

This season, Aina has been a consistent starter for Forest, featuring in every league match except for the opening game against Bournemouth (54 minutes) and the recent match against West Ham (84 minutes).
