Nottingham Forest has been the surprise story of success of the season, in third place and well positioned to get his first European adventure since the 1995-96 campaign.
Once they were ridiculed by their apparently dispersed recruitment policy, but their owners have proven to be correct, since a series of players allowed to go by supposedly larger clubs have led their position to a place in the Champions League.
But they are not there yet, with Manchester City and Newcastle breathing through the neck and Chelsea, Bournemouth and Aston Villa also in the mixture.
Therefore, there is still space to improve for always ambitious Marinakis evangelos, especially with a discouraging race that will see that Forest faces Newcastle, City and Arsenal in consecutive games.
With that in mind, there are still many things that can change in the last days of the January window and here, our expert in the Nottingham forest, Tom Collomosse, answers the five key transfer questions facing the club.
What business have done Forest so far in January and will be happy with him?
Known in recent years for its activity in the market, the priority of the Chief of the Nuno Holy Spirit this window has been to keep its key players in the city's field.

Chris Wood has been revelation but does not have a support or someone who gives him a break
The star of the wolves, Matheus Cunha, is on the radar of Forest, but the sale price of £ 60 million can be too high
His only agreement has been bringing back the goalkeeper of the free agent Wayne Hennessey (seven months after the club released him) and sending the defender Andrew Omobamidele on loan to Strasbourg.
What do they need to do and have money to spend?
Although the forest has most of the covered bases, they lack reliable coverage for the top scorer Chris Wood and would be significantly weaker if it had a spell on the sidelines.
From now on and the end of the window, Forest will strive to bring an alternative proven in the attack, while taking care to remain within the profit and sustainability regulations of the Premier League.
What signings are they directed?
It is unlikely that the forward of the Wolves Matheus Cunha firm a new agreement before the window and the forest be closed among the clubs that observe the situation closely, although the probable rate of approximately 60 million for the player of 25 years is steep.
Yane Wissa has been one of the stars of the season, with 11 goals and two assists in the league, and Brentford's man is another at the Forest radar.
Who could leave?
If the forest is going to sign an attacker, they must first make a sale, so they will allow Taiwo Awoniyi to join another club.
The Nigerian is an effective number 9 at this level, but the problems of injury have ruined his forest career.
It remains to be seen if West Ham, or another club, would be prepared to overlook those who will bring the 27 -year -old.

What players have tried in January and could be “like a new signing” for the rest of the season?
Nuno has been so loyal to his usual customers that it has been difficult for those who are on the sidelines to have a serious impact.
However, Forest seemed tired in his last games, against Southampton and Bournemouth, and Nuno can feel the need to shuffle his backpack now.
Alex Moreno, Ramon Sosa, Jota Silva and James Ward-Prowse will wait for more action.
