Key strength: Shot-stopping
Shot-stopper
Angus Gunn arrived at Nottingham Forest in August 2025 seeking to reignite his Premier League career, but fate had other plans. With the Tricky Trees precariously perched in 17th place and desperate for stability between the posts, the Scottish shot-stopper managed just two appearances—180 minutes—before a cruel knee injury sidelined him indefinitely. Valued at €2.2 million, Gunn represents more than a depth signing; he's the son of former Norwich City goalkeeper Bryan Gunn, carrying goalkeeper lineage through his veins. A pure shot-stopper by trade, his commanding presence and reflexes offered Forest exactly what their porous defense—anchored by Murillo and Milenković—needed. Now, as Nottingham Forest fight tooth and nail to escape the relegation mire, Gunn watches from the treatment table, his return date uncertain. The club can only hope that when he does return, he'll deliver the kind of performances that once made him a Premier League regular and, perhaps, help his father's spirit guard the Forest goal once more.
