Nottingham Forest unveil elite training ground revamp
Nottingham Forest have revealed a stunning overhaul of their training ground.
Greek owner Evangelos Marinakis is believed to have poured millions into upgrading the facilities at the Nigel Doughty Academy.
The renovations have completely transformed the site, with a revamped dining area and turning the canteen into a modern restaurant.
This new space features communal areas including table tennis, table football, and comfortable seating around a large TV, all for the players and staff to enjoy.
Forest's head coach, Nuno Espirito Santo, has been instrumental in ensuring that players not only train together but also dine as a unit.
The club released a glossy video tour of the newly enhanced facilities, led by Nuno himself.

Captain Ryan Yates said: “The pitches before weren’t great. Now, they’re world-class, and that’s a game-changer for us. It’s helping us grow as players, and the improvements throughout the facility make it feel like a true Premier League training ground.”
The Midlands club have started the 2024/25 campaign well, with 10 points from seven games in the Premier League so far.
Even on the road with trips to Liverpool, Brighton and Chelsea, Forest have remained unbeaten. They drew to the latter last weekend as Chris Wood netted his fourth of the season.
The side, who earned promotion in 2022, will face off against Crystal Palace next Monday at Selhurst Park.
