Nottingham Forest are on the verge of a managerial change, with Vitor Pereira set to depart and former Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner lined up as his replacement, BBC Sport understands.

A deal to bring in the Austrian coach is almost finalised, with only the formal paperwork remaining before an official announcement can be made.

Glasner, who departed his role at Crystal Palace at the end of last season, was first approached by Forest earlier this summer — making this a swift conclusion to what has been an ongoing process behind the scenes.
