Nottingham Forest secured a crucial victory against Liverpool over the weekend, marking a significant achievement by taking all three points at Anfield, a feat they last accomplished in 1969. The match’s decisive moment came from Callum Hudson-Odoi, who scored his first goal of the 2024/25 Premier League season.
Forest’s performance was commanding, and their ability to dominate large stretches of the game showcased their strength, suggesting the victory was far from a fluke.
A standout player in this match was Forest’s center-back, Murillo, who has been a topic of transfer speculation, particularly with interest from Inter Milan. Valued at £70 million, Murillo has shown remarkable form, shaking off any inconsistencies from pre-season and putting in a stellar display.
Alan Shearer highlighted Murillo’s defensive solidity, including him in his Team of the Week after the victory. Shearer praised the 22-year-old, noting his critical role in securing Forest’s first league win at Anfield in 55 years.
With performances like this, Murillo’s value could soar, and it’s likely only a matter of time before bigger clubs make a move for him.
