Nottingham Forest will have to continue their relegation fight without the talented player who helped them end a 12-game winless run against Brighton and Hove Albion.
Nottingham Forest defender Neco Williams is ‘gutted’ he will miss the rest of the season after he suffered a serious injury against Brighton and Hove Albion at the weekend.
Williams fractured his jaw as the Reds boosted their revival hopes with a shock 3-1 victory against the Seagulls.
The fullback was on the pitch for over an hour before he was stretched out after he sustained the injury that will now see him miss the rest of the season.
Forest lose Neco for the season
Forest claimed their first win in 12 matches after coming from behind to see off FA Cup semifinalists Brighton in superb fashion.
But the win came at a huge cost for the home side who suffered a major injury setback when Neco came off badly hurt following a collision with teammates Brennan Johnson.
