Nottingham Forest are considering a move to appoint Ange Postecoglou amid doubts over Nuno Espirito Santo's future.

Jose Mourinho could reportedly make a sensational Premier League return with Nottingham Forest emerging as a shock potential destination. Nuno Espirito Santo's position as head coach at the City Ground is uncertain due to a rift with the club's hierarchy, despite a 3-1 victory over Brentford last weekend.

Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis has identified Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers as a top target to replace Nuno Espirito Santo, with the Portuguese coach expected to be dismissed next week. Tensions between Marinakis and Nuno have reached breaking point, leaving Rodgers as the frontrunner to take charge at the City Ground, despite previous links with Jose Mourinho.

Nuno Espirito Santo has rubbished "nonsense" speculation suggesting he wants to be sacked as Nottingham Forest manager amid a public falling out with owner Evangelos Marinakis.

Nuno Espirito Santo has held talks with West Ham as head coach Graham Potter could be sacked following a series of poor results. Nuno, who parted ways with Nottingham Forest this month due to a breakdown in his working relationship with owner Evangelos Marinakis, could return to the Premier League soon after he was replaced at the City Ground by Ange Postecoglou.
