Nuno Espirito Santo may have been sacked by Nottingham Forest this week, but Stan Collymore insists the Portuguese coach will not be out of work for long.
Despite leading Forest from a relegation fight to European football, Nuno’s relationship with owner Evangelos Marinakis reportedly broke down, while disagreements over summer transfers added further tension.

The club wasted no time replacing him, appointing Ange Postecoglou as new manager, but attention has quickly turned to Nuno’s future.
Collymore Predicts Swift Premier League Comeback
Speaking on X, Collymore praised Nuno’s work at Forest, rating his spell a “9/10” and highlighting how he turned good players into superb performers.
The pundit added that he expects the former Wolves boss to be back in the Premier League by November or December.
Collymore even named potential destinations, suggesting Wolves, Sunderland, Leeds, or West Ham could be likely suitors once managerial vacancies arise.
The former Liverpool striker also noted that Nuno’s counter-attacking style brought results, though Forest’s shift to Postecoglou’s possession-based approach may take time to bed in.
While Collymore is confident about a Premier League return, Nuno also has admirers abroad, reports TBR Football.
Saudi Pro League clubs have maintained interest in the 50-year-old, with reports claiming they were in “constant contact” with him before his Forest exit.
Whether he chooses a Premier League comeback or a lucrative Middle East move, Nuno Espirito Santo is unlikely to stay unemployed for long.
