Nottingham Forest are on the brink of sacking Vitor Pereira, just months after the Portuguese coach saved them from relegation.
What happened?
The decision comes after a rift between the hierarchy and the ex-Wolves boss began to open up, with Fabrizio Romano claiming Pereira could be let go before the season begins.
Why it matters for Nottingham Forest
This would mark the fifth manager Forest have had in 12 months, given Nuno Espirito Santo having started the 2025/26 campaign in charge of the Tricky Trees. By the time the September international break rolled around, Nuno was gone, after suggestions his relationship with owner Evangelos Marinakis broke down.
What comes next?
Ange Postecoglou was ushered in as his replacement, but the Aussie managed just 39 days in charge before facing the axe himself. Forest went from one extreme to another, given Marinakis and co. called upon the sturdy Sean Dyche to rescue them from the situation.
