Transfer deadline day: Every key USMNT player that changed clubs during European window
A ton of key USMNT players changed clubs during the European transfer window — here's where they ended up.SEPTEMBER 1, 2023
Divock Origi - Loaned to Forest Origi has joined Nottingham Forest on a season-long loan from AC Milan.
Impact Origi is back in the Premier League after producing two goals in 27 league appearances at AC Milan last season. As has been the case, he seems more like a depth option at Forest, though the sale of Brennan Johnson means a spot is open for the taking with Anthony Elanga also competing for a starting gig.

Odysseas Vlachodimos - Makes Forest move Vlachodimos completed a permanent transfer to Nottingham Forest on a four-year deal, the club announced.
Impact Vlachodimos was long sought after and now joins Nottingham Forest on a four-year contract. The goalkeeper was a shining star for Benfica in Europe, including some heroic performances such as a seven-save draw against a full strength PSG side in the Champions League. He will look to compete for the starting job in the Premier League once he has settled with his new club.

Callum Hudson-Odoi - Secures permanent transfer Hudson-Odoi finalized a move to Nottingham Forest from Chelsea, signing a three-year deal with his new club Friday.
Impact Hudson-Odoi logged 21 matches in Bundesliga and European competition for Bayer Leverkusen last season in which he recorded one goal on 13 shots (three on target), one assist, 23 crosses (seven accurate) and 10 corners. While Hudson-Odoi is unlikely to take over from Morgan Gibbs-White as the primary corner-taker, he should be able to take a share of the workload.
SEPTEMBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Nicolas Dominguez - Signs five-year deal Dominguez transferred to Nottingham Forest from Bologna on Friday, signing a five-year deal with his new club.
Impact Dominguez could be pressed into service right away due to injuries to Danilo (hamstring) and Orel Mangala (undisclosed). In his two appearances for Bologna this season, the midfielder recorded one tackle (lost), two clearances and one chance created.
SEPTEMBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Nuno Tavares - Joins Forest on loan Tavares has joined Nottingham Forest on loan from Arsenal for the rest of the season.
Impact Tavares gets a chance to stay in the Premier League this season after appearing in 31 league and six Champions League matches last season at Marseille. It's another depth option for Forest, who seem to be adding a new full-back every day, though Tavares probably will have the leg up on Ola Aina for starts and this likely means the eventual dropping of Harry Toffolo and Neco Williams from league starts.

Scott McKenna - Picks up hamstring injury McKenna suffered a hamstring injury against Manchester United on Saturday and is a doubt to face Chelsea on Saturday after manager Steve Cooper told reporters, "Scott has picked up...
Impact McKenna has started all three matches for the club but was left out of the squad for Wednesday's Carabao Cup clash with Burnley. If the central defender can't give it a go Saturday, potential returnee Filipe (knee) could be an option to replace McKenna in the starting XI.
AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Felipe - In contention Saturday Felipe (knee) could get back on the pitch against Chelsea on Saturday after manager Steve Cooper told reporters, "Felipe is back training and was on the bench on Wednesday night. I...
Impact Felipe was on the bench for the team's Carabao Cup matchup with Burnley but failed to get onto the pitch. With Joe Worral back from suspension, a spot in the starting XI will come at a premium, which means Felipe could find himself stuck in a reserve role for the time being.
AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Orel Mangala - Ruled out versus Chelsea Mangala (undisclosed) will not be an option to face Chelsea on Saturday. Manager Steve Cooper told reporters, "Orel is out injured at the moment," per Sarah Clapson of Nottinghamsh...
Impact Mangala has been officially ruled out for the clash with Chelsea after having previously been considered a doubt to return before the international break. Prior to getting hurt, the midfielder started each of the first two matches of the season in which he recorded five tackles (two won), three interceptions and one chance created. Once cleared to play, Mangala should be a near-lock to reclaim his place in the starting XI.
AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Joe Worrall - Clears suspension Worrall is set to be eligible for Saturday's match against Chelsea following his suspension his red card against Manchester United on August 26.
Impact Joe Worrall is expected to start at center back alongside Moussa Niakhate against Chelsea after featuring in the lineup the first three games of the season. He is entering his fifth season with the team while becoming a leader in the back following his success to getting Nottingham promoted to the Premier League during the 2021/22 campaign.
AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Wayne Hennessey - Making progress Hennessey (knee) continues to make progress since undergoing knee injury earlier in the month, per the Nottingham Post.
Impact It could still be another two months or so until we see Hennessey back on the pitch, but he is making good progress from his knee surgery. With Matt Turner signing from Arsenal, it will be hard to see him take over the starting keeper position once he is back in action.
AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Felipe - Was featured in cup match Felipe (knee) was an unused substitute during Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Burley during the Carabao Cup.
Impact Felipe could make his season debut Saturday as he inches closer to returning to the pitch as he was an unused substitute during the cup match Wednesday. He will be entering his second season with the club, totaling 15 starts in 16 appearances last campaign.
AUGUST 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Danilo Oliveira - Set for hamstring scan Danilo is expected to undergo a hamstring scan after sitting out during Wednesday's 1-0 to Burley during the Carabao Cup, per the Nottingham Post.
Impact This could be a big loss for the team as Danilo has started the first three league matches of the season. It is unclear how much time he will miss until the results of the scan come on. In the meantime, Cheikou Kouyate could get the start alongside Ryan Yates in the midfield of Danilo has to sit out.

Anthony Elanga - Struggles in defeat Elanga took one shot during Wednesday's 1-0 EFL Cup loss to Burnley.
Impact Elanga got the start and played 90 minutes during Wednesday's loss, but put only a single shot in. The forward struggled to get much done as Forest were completely shut down throughout. Elanga has made three Premier League appearances off the bench, earning an assist, but has yet to get a start in the top flight since joining Forest.
AUGUST 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Orel Mangala - Doubtful before break Mangala (knock) is a doubt to play before the international break, manager Steve Cooper told reporters. "Orel shouldn't be too long. I'm not sure whether he'll play in the games be...
Impact Mangala's injury isn't believed to be serious but it kept him off the pitch during a 3-2 loss to Manchester United. Ryan Yates got the start in place of Mangala and could continue in the first team for a Saturday trip to Chelsea.
AUGUST 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Morgan Gibbs-White - Notches first goal contribution Gibbs-White assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-2 defeat to Manchester United. In addition, he was giv...
Impact Gibbs-White gained his first goal contribution of the year when he found Taiwo Awoniyi on a counterattack for the first goal of the match. Gibbs-White all around had a great day on the pitch, contributing two shots, three chances created and seven crosses to go along with his assist. The 23-year-old playmaker will look to top last seasons tally of 13 goal contributions after bagging his first of the season on Saturday.
AUGUST 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Willy Boly - Scores rare goal Boly scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-2 loss against Manchester United.
Impact Boly brought Nottingham's lead to two when his header found the back of net in the fourth minute, before eventually falling 3-2 to United in Saturday's match. The 32-year-old's goal was a rare and unexpected one as he found the back of the net for the first time in four years. Boly has been given the start in the clubs opening three matches and should be considered a normal starter for Forest this season after dealing with injuries all of last season's campaign.
AUGUST 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Taiwo Awoniyi - Scores in third straight match Awoniyi scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Manchester United.
Impact Awoniyi continued his run of brilliance in Saturday's match against United, scoring in his seventh straight competitive match for Nottingham and bringing his overall goal tally to three in as many matches. The rapid striker has impressed so far this season, using his incredible pace and strength to slip through backlines and hold off defenders to secure his goals. Through three games, the 26-year-old seems to be the early front runner for the number nine position in Forest's starting lineup as he has been a lifeline for the attack and currently is tied atop the Premier League goal scoring chart.
AUGUST 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Matt Turner - Seven saves in loss Turner registered seven saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-2 loss versus Manchester United.
Impact Turner had a decent game in net despite allowing three goals, making seven saves in Saturday's loss. The American keeper was battered with shots throughout the match and did well to hold his ground on most of the chances, but was unfortunate to face a penalty and two very well worked United attacks that resulted in goals. Turner hasn't had the best start to his campaign at Forrest so far, allowing six goals in three matches, and will have to do better if he wants to keep a secure hold on his position. The road will not be getting easier anytime soon either, as he will face Chelsea and Manchester City in two of his next three matches.
