Nottingham Forest Expected to Target Brendan Rodgers for Managerial Role After Postecoglou's Sacking

Nottingham Forest has sacked manager Ange Postecoglou after a poor run of results, leaving the club in the relegation zone and prompting a search for a new manager. Brendan Rodgers, currently the Celtic manager and out of contract at the end of the season, has emerged as a leading candidate for the role due to his Premier League experience and successful track record, including multiple Scottish league titles and an FA Cup win. Rodgers is reportedly frustrated with Celtic's lack of transfer spending and is keen on a Premier League return, which aligns with Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis' preference for an attractive style of play. Other candidates for the Forest job include Sean Dyche, Roberto Mancini, and Marco Silva, but Rodgers is seen as a potential coup that could stabilize and uplift the club. Despite speculation, Rodgers has stated he intends to see out his contract at Celtic before making any move. Forest's urgency to appoint a new manager reflects the club's precarious position and the need for a turnaround to avoid relegation.
