Former Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has agreed a deal to become the next Nottingham Forest head coach.
The contract will last until the summer of 2027, and an announcement could come as soon as Tuesday.
The first game for Postecoglou is set to be away to Arsenal on Saturday, according to Sky Sports.
Postecoglou was identified as the leading candidate to succeed Nuno Espirito Santo, and talks have accelerated on Tuesday morning.
The Premier League club sacked Nuno in the early hours of Tuesday.

Greek owner Evangelos Marinakis has been an admirer of the former Celtic and Spurs head coach, whose family are of Greek origin, for some time.
In July, Marinakis presented Postecoglou with a special award in Greece for being the first coach of Greek origin to win a European trophy in the men’s game.
Marinakis said: “Angie has spoken many times about Greece.
“It is very important for a person to be proud and shout about his origins.
“He achieved it with a team that was not winning titles and was struggling. With this success with Tottenham, he made Greece proud.
“He is a very good coach and wherever he goes, he will make Greece proud.”
Postecoglou has been out of work since leaving Tottenham in June, just 16 days after leading them to Europa League glory.
The 60-year-old spent two seasons at Spurs and ended their trophy drought last season, but did so at the expense of the league, where they finished 17th.
