The English Premier League club Nottingham Forest has officially announced the dismissal of their head coach Steve Cooper.

Nottingham currently sits in the 17th position in the Premier League standings, five points above the relegation zone. Recently, the team has been struggling on the pitch. Forest has gone six league games without a win - five losses and one draw.

It's worth noting that this is the second managerial change in the Premier League this season. In early December, Sheffield United dismissed their head coach, Paul Heckingbottom.

Cooper had been in charge of Nottingham since 2021. Under his guidance, the team secured promotion to the Premier League for the first time since the 1998/99 season, overcoming the Championship playoffs. The 44-year-old Welsh coach is also known for his work with Swansea City, England's youth teams, as well as the youth squads of Liverpool and Wrexham.

Nottingham Forest, now without Cooper, will face Bournemouth in an EPL match on December 23, aiming to improve their league position.
