The 28-year-old defender, who joined Forest in 2023 on a one-year deal with an optional second year, has been a key figure in the club’s impressive Premier League campaign this season.
Currently earning £40,000 per week, according to Capology, Aina is poised for a significant pay rise as Forest moves to reward his contributions and fend off interest from other clubs. After his contract with Torino expired, Aina opted to move to City Ground, and the decision proved mutually beneficial. Forest triggered the extension clause in May, securing his services until the summer of 2024. With just months remaining on his current deal, the club has acted swiftly to begin discussions to keep him beyond next summer.
