Nottingham Forest<\/a> intend to hold formal talks with head coach Vitor Pereira over a new contract.<\/p>\n

The Portuguese has done an impressive job at the City Ground following his appointment in February, guiding the club to Premier League safety and the Europa League semi-finals.<\/p>\n

His current deal runs until the summer of 2027, but informal talks have taken place with a view to extending his contract.<\/p>\n

Pereira has impressed the hierarchy at the City Ground since coming in to replace Sean Dyche and they want him to lead Forest into the 2026\/27 campaign.<\/p>\n

Reports have linked Forest with a summer move for Fulham boss Marco Silva<\/a>, but there is no desire within the club for a fifth manager in less than a year.<\/p>\n

Pereira, who is keen for a long-term stay in Nottingham, has guided Forest safely through a relegation battle.<\/p>\n

They were staring a return to the Championship in the face when Dyche was sacked on February 12, but their Premier League survival was secured thanks to an eight-game unbeaten run going back to March.<\/p>\n

Sunday\u2019s 1-1 draw with Newcastle moved them seven points clear of the drop zone with two games to play.<\/p>\n

They head to Manchester United on Sunday with a top-half finish still possible.<\/p>\n

Nottingham Forest transfer update: Elliot Anderson, Morgan Gibbs-White<\/p>\n

\"Elliot-Anderson\"<\/p>\n

Forest’s next task is to keep hold of key players this summer, with several of their top stars attracting interest from the Premier League’s biggest clubs.<\/p>\n

Indeed, Elliot Anderson is wanted by Manchester City, and a new report from teamTALK<\/a> reveals the Reds hold an ‘acceptance internally’ that a huge offer from City would be hard to resist.<\/p>\n

The same can not be said for captain Morgan Gibbs-White however, with the club set to reject advances from Manchester United and Tottenham and the 26 year-old himself keen to stay put.<\/p>\n

Forest placed a \u00a3100m price tag on their skipper’s head last summer<\/a>, but this time around are desperate to build around him rather than cash in for any sum.<\/p>\n

\"Morgan-Gibbs-White-1\"<\/p>\n

Indeed, the report claims Gibbs-White will not pushing for an exit after signing a new deal and he believes ‘regular football and continued responsibility at Forest’ is more important to his England chances than a move to a traditional ‘big six’ club.<\/p>\n

With six caps to his name already, Gibbs-White has strengthened his case to start ahead of the likes of Jude Bellingham and Morgan Rogers with 13 goals and four assists in 35 top flight appearances this season.<\/p>\n
