Just In: ‘I’ll Prefer to wait’… 57-year-old manager linked with Nottingham Forest says he’s……

Nottingham Forest manager Julen Lopetegui said he has already rejected offers from around the world.

The Reds are currently considering whether or not to sack Steve Cooper.Lopetegui took over at Wolves when they were bottom of the Premier League last season. He galloped them to safety, but then chose to abandon his position on the eve of the new campaign. He is now ready to return to work and currently still lives in Wolverhampton. However, he won’t just get the first available job and that may not be good news for Forest if they like Lopetegui. The 57-year-old coached Real Madrid, the Spanish national team, and won the Europa League with Sevilla. He would be a strong nomination, but he will choose his next role carefully.Lopetegui has been linked with a move to Forest, with Evangelos Marinakis said to be a big fan of the manager. However, it looks like he will take his time. He told Sky Sports News: “I’ve had different offers from different countries and for different reasons I prefer to wait for the right moment. “I think it’s the right situation and in football we don’t know what which will happen tomorrow.“It’s true that I said no to a few different offers in different countries. I prefer to wait for the moment that seems opportune. I want to stay here and we want to achieve our dreams and goals here. The way people follow football here is something special. »The Spanish manager is a born winner and his firefighting role at Wolves last season would make him perfect for Forest. However, it seems that he has other ideas.Lopetegui is a solid manager and many at Forest would see him as an upgrade to Cooper if he were to leave. The same cannot be said for Nuno Espirito Santo, who has been linked for the last 24 hours.It’s no surprise that Lopetegui is eagerly awaiting his next managerial job. He will feel that his CV should get him a big job and perhaps he sees Forest as a small job. Given fan reactions to the Espirito Santo links, Forest owner Marinakis may consider making a final call on Lopetegui in the coming days.
