Nuno Espirito Santo previously managed Wolves and Tottenham in the Premier League
Nottingham Forest head coach Nuno Espirito Santo has been sacked after 21 months in charge.
The position of the Portuguese coach had been uncertain for two weeks since he publicly declared his relationship with owner Evangelos Marinakis had deteriorated.
Talks are under way over Nuno's replacement, with an appointment imminent and former Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou a contender.
In a statement released after midnight, Forest thanked Nuno "for his contribution during a very successful era at the City Ground" and said he would "always hold a special place" in their journey.
