Chris Wood
34-Year-Old
Nottingham Forest
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Wood notched a career campaign at the age of 33 in the 2024/25 season, leading Nottingham Forest to European football and a seventh-place finish. The forward reached a career-high 20 goals, with 17 of them coming in the first 24 matches. His three assists also matched a career high, seeing much more involvement in the fast-paced counterattacking system they have in place. The question is if this will be a one-off, as his form and Forest's form as a team dropped the final few months of the season. He's reached double-digit goals in the Premier League on six occasions and has proved he can score when given the opportunity, but reaching 20 goals in 2025/26 seems like a longshot.
Mostly silent against Belgium
Wood created two scoring chances, drew one foul and registered one tackle (one won) and one clearance in Friday's 5-1 loss against Belgium.
ANALYSIS
Wood tried to get something going with a pair of interesting feeds while New Zealand were still in the game, but he couldn't get a shot off for the first time in the competition and progressively disappeared. He concludes the World Cup with two assists, five attempts (two on target) and two clearances and having tallied at least one key pass in every bout, piling up eight.
