Full Nottingham Forest squad available to Steve Cooper vs Man Utd as new signings forced to wait

Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper welcomed a trio of new signings to the club on transfer deadline day, but none of them will be available for selection against Manchester United on Wednesday night.

Keylor Navas was the blockbuster signing of the day after he arrived at the City Ground on loan from Paris-Saint Germain. Felipe and Jonjo Shelvey, who is cup-tied, joined from Atletico Madrid and Newcastle United respectively.

Lewis O’Brien won't be in the matchday squad at Old Trafford as Forest await confirmation on his move to Blackburn Rovers. Goalkeeper Jordan Smith has joined Huddersfield Town on loan.

Steve Cook could feature, though, after the club decided not to move him on. He was also linked with a move to Blackburn, as well as West Brom and Luton Town.

One man who has been categorically ruled out is Morgan Gibbs-White. He joined a significant injury list in the first leg against Man United and Cooper expects him to be out "for a little while".

Here are all of the options available to Cooper ahead of Man United vs Nottingham Forest:

Goalkeepers: Wayne Hennessey, Adnan Kanuric.

Defenders: Scott McKenna, Joe Worrall, Willy Boly, Steve Cook, Renan Lodi, Harry Toffolo, Neco Williams, Serge Aurier.

Midfielders: Danilo, Jack Colback, Remo Freuler, Orel Mangala, Jesse Lingard, Gustavo Scarpa.

Forwards: Brennan Johnson, Emmanuel Dennis, Sam Surridge.

Sidelined: Morgan Gibbs-White, Chris Wood, Omar Richards, Moussa Niakhate, Taiwo Awoniyi, Cheikhou Kouyate, Guilian Biancone.

Ineligible: Dean Henderson, Jonjo Shelvey, Keylor Navas, Felipe.
