LEE Peltier says he would like to be part of the Stuart Pearce era at Nottingham Forest – but admits he does not know what his future holds.
The Reds' new manager met with owner Fawaz Al Hasawi yesterday and is expected to hold further talks today, to discuss his blueprint for the future in depth.
It remains unclear whether the on-loan Leeds player, 27, will be part of those plans.
Pearce has a number of big decisions to make, when it comes to the future of the out of contract players and those who are at the club on loan.
Some players were told yesterday they will not be offered new deals, with Marcus Tudgay and Guy Moussi announcing on Twitter they would be moving on.
Peltier says he has enjoyed his time on loan at the City Ground, where he has impressed in seven matches.
But he is uncertain where he will be playing next season.
"I don't know what my future holds, I will sit down with my agent and discuss what happens," said Peltier.
"I have been focused on playing here, I have not spoken to anyone about anything beyond this season. I will have a good chat with my agent and then go from there.
"Forest have a strong team and will be right up there next season. They have a good chairman who is backing them. It is a good club.
"They are a good set of lads, they are good to work with, as is Gary (Brazil), and I have really enjoyed my time here.
"All the staff have been great, as have the fans. That is all I can say. We will wait to see what the future holds."
Peltier says the City Ground dressing room is buzzing at the prospect of Pearce's arrival.
"It is a new era for the club under Stuart Pearce and everyone around the club is buzzing about him coming in," he said.
"It is a fresh start for everyone. It will be a good opportunity for people."
And he believes there might have been a more positive end to the campaign had the injury list not been quite so long – the Reds had 16 players unavailable through injury, illness and suspension on the final day against Brighton.
"It would have been different, definitely. The quality of the players who are missing is crazy," he said.
"If they were fit, they would have helped us push on. But you have to get on with it.
"They will focus on getting themselves fit for next season. It will be a big season for Forest and I am sure the lads will be raring to go when it starts."
