Delap excited to work with Glasner after completing £50m move to Nottingham Forest

Striker Liam Delap is thrilled to join Nottingham Forest from Chelsea on a five-year contract, as the Championship club completes a £50 million deal for the 23-year-old. Delap, who scored 12 goals last season while playing for Chelsea, arrived at Stamford Bridge last term after a stellar 2024/25 campaign with Ipswich Town, where he netted 12 times and set a new club record as the highest scorer in the Tractor Boys' first-ever Premier League campaign in 22 years.

Delap expressed his excitement about joining Forest, praising the club's rich history and the management's approach. He is eager to develop under their new manager and aims to provide crucial goals for the team. Forest's chief football officer, George Syrianos, expressed delight at the signing of Delap, noting the player's rich experience and hunger to learn more at the club. The main goal for both parties is to challenge for a top spot in the Premier League.
