Sacked Crystal Palace coach Patrick Vieira is a leading contender to take over at Nottingham Forest.
Vieira, who lost his job to Roy Hodgson, is the man Forest want to bring in should they fire Steve Cooper.
The latter is under some pressure after the club are struggling to stay afloat in the Premier League after massive summer and winter spending,.
Per The Mail, Vieira will be getting the Forest job should the club's owner pull the plug on Cooper's tenure.
However, Cooper will get every chance to steady the ship and see the job through to the end of the season at the very least.
Forest fans are hugely thankful to him for getting them promotion to the Premier League.
