Nottingham Forest Confirm Steven Benda Signing as Oliver Glasner Strengthens Goalkeeping Options

Nottingham Forest have completed another piece of summer transfer business with the signing of goalkeeper Steven Benda from Fulham.

The 27-year-old goalkeeper has joined Forest on a one-year contract, with the club holding an option to extend the agreement for a further year. His arrival provides additional depth and competition between the posts as Oliver Glasner prepares his squad for the new Premier League campaign.

Benda’s arrival follows the departure of Angus Gunn and gives Forest another experienced goalkeeper to work with the first-team squad. The German-born stopper has previously featured in the Premier League and brings valuable experience to a Forest side preparing for another demanding season.

The signing also underlines Glasner’s intention to strengthen every area of his squad before the new campaign gets fully underway. Forest have already been active in the transfer market, with defensive reinforcements and other additions arriving as the manager looks to build a team capable of competing at the highest level.

With the Premier League season approaching, Forest supporters will now be watching closely to see whether the club can complete further deals before the transfer window closes.
