Nottingham Forest have announced midfielder Ryan Yates has committed his
future to the club until 2028 with the option to extend for a further year.
Yates, 26, joined the Forest Academy at the age of eight and has made 203 appearances for the club.
He was named vice-captain ahead of the Reds’ return to the Premier League in
2022 and has made 61 top-flight appearances.
“I’m absolutely buzzing and can’t wait for the season to start now,” Yates said. “Having been here for so long, I really
understand what the club means to people who have worked here for many
years, the supporters and justNottingham in general.
Every time I put the shirt on and wear the armband, I just look to reflect what
this club is all about and what this city is all about.”
Chief football officer Ross Wilson added: “It goes without saying that we are
thrilled to have reached this agreement with Ryan.
“He’s someone our fans admire, and I know how much the club means to him.
“Our owner drives unity throughout the club and undoubtedly Ryan is a huge
part of that togetherness. He will be crucial as we continue to strive forwards together.”
