In the summer of 1991, Forest signed Millwall striker Teddy Sheringham for a club record fee of £2 million. Sheringham would score 20 goals in his debut season, helping Forest reach a third Football League Cup final in four years, though this time they lost 1–0 to Manchester United. They also won the Full Members Cup for a second time, beating Southampton 3–2 after extra time. Forest had played in seven domestic cup finals at Wembley in five seasons winning five of the finals. Forest finished eighth in the league to earn a place in the new FA Premier League.
