'Wasted' - Nottingham Forest fans react as club let forgotten man leave

Claudio Yacob’s 18-month stint with Nottingham Forest has come to an end.

The Argentine was signed by Aitor Karanka on a free transfer in September 2018 but had his today (Monday).

Uruguayan Primera Division side Nacional de Football announced soon after that they had signed the defensive midfielder.

After joining from West Bromwich Albion, Yacob failed to nail down a spot at Forest, making just 17 appearances in all competitions.

Reds supporters have been reacting to the news – and here’s what they had to say...

@Twheatman: Never really got a chance. Good luck to him.

@FIGUElREDO: Feel bad for him.

@LilMissRedDog: Such an underrated player. All the very best Yacob.

@thech1ef: Quality player, still don’t understand why he got excluded.

@LewisTreece: Wasn’t given the chance he deserved.

@hawketts11: Criminally underused.

@GrapsTalk: Another player who never really got a chance when he showed quite a bit when he played. Wish him the best.

@MattFloyd79: Wasted talent.

@dj_zotov: Amazed he never featured more for us, but in Sabri we trust.

@Jonno_Reilly: He's actually a really good footballer you know lads.

@jtweets92: Never had a bad game for us. Bit of a waste really!
