Fans of Nottingham Forest have been reacting to a post by Yuri Ribeiro on Twitter, in which the left-back shows fans exactly how he is spending his time during the suspension of professional football.

In the post, the £2.7 million-rated 23-year-old shared an image of himself working out, demonstrating to fans that he is keeping up his fitness throughout the current break.

To kick off this quiz about the past week in the Championship, can you name which manager was announced as February's Championship Manager of the Month last week?

In reaction, fans of Nottingham Forest flocked to Twitter, with many wishing the former Portugal U21 international well in these worrying times, while others commented on the impressive physique of the left-back.

When the club then shared video footage of his workout, this also prompted fans to share their thoughts towards Ribeiro.

What do we think?

Ribeiro has not only impressed Forest fans with his weightlifting this season, but he has also done so on the football pitch.

Since arriving from Benfica last summer, the left-back has provided two assists over his 18 Championship appearances, while averaging a WhoScored match rating of 6.87.

His performances have contributed towards Nottingham Forest’s successful campaign so far this season, helping the club to reach fifth place in the Championship table.

With just nine games remaining of the campaign and Forest currently five points clear of seventh-placed Bristol City, Ribeiro and the Reds are in a fantastic position to finish the season in the play-off places.
