Former Everton manager Sean Dyche has been sacked by Nottingham Forest - after less than four months in charge.
A Forest statement, published at 12.30am, reads: "Nottingham Forest Football Club can confirm that Sean Dyche has been relieved of his duties as head coach.
"We would like to thank Sean and his staff for their efforts during their time at the club and we wish them the best of luck for the future. We will be making no further comment at this time."

Forest drew 0-0 at home to basement boys Wolverhampton Wanderers FC last night (Wednesday), leaving them just three points above the relegation places in the Premier League.
Dyche becomes the third manager to lose his job at Forest already this season after Nuno Espirito Santo and Ange Postecoglou.
His reign lasted 25 games. During that time he oversaw 10 wins, six draws and nine defeats. Four of those wins came in the Europa League. Forest will face Fenerbahce later this month for a place in the last 16.
Dyche left Everton in January 2025 after nearly two years as the club's manager.
Forest were booed by their own supporters after the draw with Wolves and asked after the game about his future, Dyche said: "The owner has been fair to me, without a shadow of a doubt.
"If anyone chooses to change in football now, that's their decision. We've all seen it."
