Next Nottingham Forest Manager Odds: Graham Potter Favoured To Replace Steve Cooper

Steve Cooper has become a cult hero at Nottingham Forest, guiding the club back to Premier League status for the first time in 23-years.

Recent performances have cast a spell of doubt over the Nottingham Forest manager’s future, leaving a list of possible replacements.

Potter has been priced at 6/1 to take the role, as he looks for his return to management following a disappointing tenure at Chelsea.

Former Wolves manager, Julen Lopetegui, is the favourite to take the reigns at the City Ground which may not go down well due to the Midlands rivalry.

Ipswich Town manager, Kieran McKenna, is an outsider at 14/1 after an impressive spell in East Anglia which has seen the Tractor Boys soar from League One fodder to second in the Championship.

An interesting, but far-fetched option at 22/1, is former Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who has been out of the limelight for almost three-years.
