Nigeria defender Ola Aina will return to action for Nottingham Forest against Aston Villa on Saturday (today) after his injury layoff, NEWSUNPLUG reports.
Aina sustained a hamstring injury, while on international duty with Nigeria in September 2025.
The 29-year-old returned to training last November but head coach Sean Dyche opted not to rush him back to action.
The injury also forced him to miss the ongoing 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
Aina has been included in Forest’s squad for the game against Aston Villa.
The full-back has made three league appearances for the Tricky Trees this season.
