Nottingham Forest name squad for pre-season tour of Greece as Yates and Benalouane miss out

Nottingham Forest have named their 26-man squad that will fly to Athens on Friday for the second part of the club's pre-season tour.

Ryan Yates and Yohan Benalouane have both missed out through injury, but while not fit enough to feature, it is understood that neither face lengthy spells on the sidelines.

Midfielder Joao Carvalho, who last month was linked with a move to join Tuesday night's opponents Olympiacos, will also not travel with the squad after he was carried off during last week's pre-season clash with Alfreton Town.

While the club are hopeful that the 22-year-old will return to training at some stage during August, they remain reluctant to put a precise time frame on his recovery.

Michael Hefele, Daryl Murphy, Liam Bridcutt and Luke Steele, who have all been told by boss Sabri Lamouchi that they are free to find other clubs this summer, will also remain in England.

Karim Ansarifard, too, will not travel, with the striker looking all the more likely to depart the club in the coming weeks, while Adlene Guedioura remains away on international duty with Algeria.

Lamouchi's summer signings - Aro Muric, Yuri Ribeiro, Alfa Semedo, Albert Adomah, Tiago Silva and Sammy Ameobi - have all been included along with 17-year-old striker Alex Mighten.
