Ola Aina’s Sprint Surprise: Chatting with Kyle Walker After Pacey Encounter

Olaoluwa Temitayo Aina, the Super Eagles and Nottingham Forest full-back, recounts a notable exchange with Kyle Walker following a footrace victory, as reported by Sportblog247.com.

Despite Nottingham Forest’s defeat to Manchester City, Aina’s sprint against the renowned Kyle Walker stood out as a highlight. Walker, known for his rapid recovery speed, was impressed by Aina’s pace during the encounter.

In an interview with The Guardian, Aina shared insights into the moment: “Even though that clip shows I got past him, it wasn’t as easy as it may have looked… He said something like, ‘you’re pretty quick and you caught me flat-footed.'”

Aina’s athleticism has been evident throughout his career, with notable achievements including being the fastest player in Serie A during his debut season with Torino.

As Nottingham Forest prepares to face Chelsea, Aina, alongside Callum Hudson-Odoi, aims to secure three points and steer clear of the relegation zone.
