According to talkSPORT and club sources, the decision followed a 3-0 home defeat to West Ham, and the club is now weighing its options.
TalkSPORT’s Alex Crook reported on X that Ange Postecoglou, Marco Silva and Jose Mourinho are the leading candidates.
Forest appear to be balancing proven experience with a desire for a more progressive, attacking style — a key factor for the hierarchy.
Jose Mourinho remains a headline option. Recently released by Fenerbahçe, he would bring immediate experience and a trophy-winning résumé.
However, owner Evangelos Marinakis and sporting director Edu are reportedly leaning toward a coach who can implement a possession-based, forward-thinking approach.
Ange Postecoglou is known for high-pressing, expansive football and would match that brief, while Marco Silva’s Fulham sides have shown organisation and forward momentum.
