Former Spurs and Wolves manager Nuno is out of workForest 17th in Premier League after one win in 13 matches
Nuno Espírito Santo is in line to take over as Nottingham Forest’s manager with the club poised to sack Steve Cooper. Forest are 17th in the Premier League, five points above the relegation zone, after one win in 13 matches and the former Spurs and Wolves head coach is in advanced talks over the job.
Nuno is out of work after being dismissed by the Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad early in November, months after he won the title there. His most recent Premier League post was an ill-fated 17-game spell at Spurs that ended in November 2021. Before that, Nuno – a client of the agent Jorge Mendes – led Wolves into the top flight and kept them there for three seasons.
