Nuno Tavares has not played a minute for Nottingham Forest since his injury in September[/caption]

However, he only managed to make 13 starts for the Gunners in the Premier League before he was shipped out on loan.

He firstly spent last season on loan in France at Marseille but returned to North London hoping to impress during the summer.

Tavares failed to convince boss Mikel Arteta of his capabilities during pre-season and he headed to Nottingham Forest for what is supposed to be a season-long loan on deadline day.

The Portugal U21 international has struggled at City Ground and has so far only started once and come off the bench twice for them in the Premier League.

Yesterday boss Steve Cooper left him out of the squad completely for Forest’s 3-2 home defeat to Brighton.

And Tavares has reacted to that Forest snub by deleting his Instagram account.

Now it seems uncertain whether he will stay and fight for his place or push to have his loan terminated once the transfer window re-opens in January.

Forest paid a £1m loan fee for Tavares, who has not played a minute since coming off injured in a defeat at Man City in September.

And they also have an option to sign him on a permanent basis in the summer for £12m.

Cooper’s men are currently 14th in the top-flight following this weekend’s setback.

They have collected 13 points from their opening 13 games and sit eight points above the relegation zone.
