Victor Sodeinde is the latest youngster to depart Nottingham Forest on loan, and he’s hoping to keep up his knack of finding the net.
The 19-year-old will spend the next month on loan at National League North outfit Hereford, where he’s linked up with self-confessed Reds fan Russell Slade.
Having been a regular in Jimmy Gilligan’s Under-23 side this term, the youngster’s bright form has alerted Slade to his availability, a move which he admits to relishing.
“I’ve had a good start to the season at Nottingham Forest, we’re top of the Under-23 league, I scored recently so I’m in good form,” Sodeinde told the Bulls’ website.
“I’m looking forward to getting going and seeing what I can achieve.
“I’ve played in the National League, so I know this sort of level. I adapted quickly whilst I was at Maidstone and I’m looking to adapt just as quickly here as well.
“I’m really looking forward to playing here, I trained with the lads last night, it was freezing cold, but it was a good session! I think I fitted in well, it’s a great group of lads.
“I like playing off the defender’s shoulder, getting in behind the back four and I like to think I’ve got a knack of scoring goals!”
It’s that knack which Slade hopes will boost Hereford’s push for the play-off places, with them sitting just outside the top seven on goal difference.
“Victor is a strong player, he can play in any of the three positions up top, he’s powerful, effective and very strong," said Slade.
"He’s a bit different to what we’ve got here at the moment and I’m really looking forward to seeing what he can do for us."
