Ward-Prowse’s Impact at Nottingham Forest
James Ward-Prowse went to Nottingham Forest in August 2024 on a season-long loan from West Ham because he wanted more games. While at Forest he really helped the team in midfield, with his good vision and amazing free kicks. The player who’s played 390 Premier League games brought lots of experience scored some big goals and helped set up others too. Now that he’s going back to West Ham Forest will really miss him in their team showing how good he was even though he wasn’t there long.

Graham Potter’s Strategic Plans
Graham Potter who’s known for being really good with tactics and doing things different, really wants to get Ward-Prowse back playing for West Ham United. Potter likes to change formations a lot and use players in different positions which works good with what Ward-Prowse can do. When Potter managed other teams before, he was good at making players better and changing plans to make the team play better. Now that Ward-Prowse is coming back Potter thinks he can make the team more creative and use his experience to help West Ham do better in the league.
Transfer Market Dynamics
Ward-Prowse going back to West Ham is just one of the things happening in transfers right now. Some other moves include:
