<p>In Forest's first game of the season against Bournemouth, Danilo challenged for a header in the centre of the pitch but suffered a horror injury upon landing. The Brazilian was quickly tended to by the club's medical staff, while Forest flags were used to obscure the injury from the crowd at the City Ground before he was stretchered off.</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Our thoughts are with Nottingham Forest’s Danilo who appears to have suffered a season ending injury during their first game 🙏 <a href="https://t.co/GsbEz2iKe6">pic.twitter.com/GsbEz2iKe6</a></p>— Football on TNT Sports (@footballontnt) <a href="https://twitter.com/footballontnt/status/1824812784946741469?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 17, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The 23-year-old joined the club in January 2023 and has played 43 games for the club in total, although his season may now be over. He has not sustained a serious injury in his career, so this may force Forest into the transfer market.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Danilo has been one of Forest's more impressive players since his signing and has been called up once by Brazil in his career, although he did not come off the bench in a friendly against Japan. </p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Judging the severity of Danilo's injury is impossible at this stage but one has to imagine that he will face a lengthy lay-off.</p>
