The report claims he has been told to stay away from the club's training ground, with his exit from Forest now 'expected before the end of the season'. ‌Edu is also said to have been asked to stay away from matches, with Wednesday night's 2-2 draw with Manchester City the third consecutive fixture he has missed. Edu's remit included recruitment, squad strategy and player development after Forest created a role for him.
