Matz Sels

Matz Sels is Nottingham Forest's Bronze Engine, providing a foundation of experience at the City Ground. A decorated veteran with nine career trophies, including league titles in Belgium and England, Sels has established himself as a vital component of the squad since his arrival from Ligue 1. Building his body of work in the Premier League, he has become a symbol of the club's defensive resilience.

Spanning 20 appearances and over 1,600 minutes this season, Sels is currently on an upward trajectory as his recent performances begin to outpace his seasonal average. While he occasionally carries the GHOST badge due to low involvement in the team's build-up play—averaging just 27 touches per 90 minutes—his true value lies in his concentration. A Workrate score of 87 highlights his relentless focus and mental stamina between the sticks. He remains a picture of reliability for a side looking to maintain their impressive form in the top flight.

With a market value of €7M and a stable trend, Sels represents a high-value asset for Forest. As the season enters a period of high Stakes matches, his experience in crunch match situations will be essential for the club to secure their position in the upper half of the table.
