Suggestions Patrick Vieira is in the running to replace Steve Cooper should he be sacked by Nottingham Forest are understood to be false.
Cooper is under pressure going into tonight’s crunch clash with Leeds United. But it is understood there is no truth in national media reports claiming Forest would consider former Crystal Palace boss Vieira as a potential replacement, should a change be made.
A run of seven games without a win has left the Reds in a precarious position. They sit one point above the relegation zone with 10 matches remaining - starting with this evening’s fixture at Elland Road.
