Nottingham Forest have appointed former Reds player Andy Reid to Steve Cooper's first-team coaching staff on a permanent basis after a successful spell as under-23s boss.
The 40-year-old makes the step up to senior football for the first time as a coach, having spent the last 18 months coaching Forest 's academy side after initially returning to the club in January 2020 and spending a year assisting Chris Cohen on a casual basis. He has also previously been a head coach on the international stage with the Republic of Ireland under-18s.
As a player, Reid made almost 300 appearances for the Reds across two stints at the City Ground. The Dubliner has spoken of his honour of continuing to progress at the club.
