What do we think?
With Nottingham Forest producing the likes of Matty Cash, Joe Worrall, Jordan Smith, Ryan Yates and Tyler Walker over the last couple of seasons, progression from their academy side to their first team is a well-trodden path.
Having played in Manchester City’s youth setup, as well as having previously been courted by Leeds, Sadler is clearly a hot prospect. With the likes of Worrall to look up to, Forest fans could well see their latest signing in and around the first team before long.
