Former Sevilla manager Jorge Sampaoli as "refused" an offer to replace Steve Cooper at Nottingham Forest, it has been claimed.
Reports from Brazil this week claimed that the 63-year-old had been approached by Forest about the possibility of moving to the City Ground, amid doubts over the future of head coach Steve Cooper.
It's said that Sampaoli was approached by Forest via intermediaries, though had not immediately responded to the offer on the table.
