Julen Lopetegui has agreed to take the manager's job at Nottingham Forest.

The former Wolves and Real Madrid coach has assured Forest he would take the job if offered it, says talkSPORT.

Forest are currently four points away from the relegation zone, but the last four consecutive defeats have undermined manager Steve Cooper's position.

Indeed, Cooper's job would be in the balance and today's match against Wolves could be decisive.

A defeat could see Forest owner Evangalos Marinakis act.
