Ange Postecoglou is ready to accept the Nottingham Forest job, talkSPORT understands.
As previously reported, Postecoglou is a leading contender to take charge at the City Ground following the sacking of Nuno Espirito Santo.
The Europa League winning Tottenham manager's attacking style of play fits the remit of what Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis is looking for.
Postecoglou recently turned down the chance to replace Jose Mourinho at Fenerbahce.
The Turkish side parted ways with Mourinho last month following their Champions League exit.
Marinakis wants to make a swift appointment and Forest travel to Spurs' north London rivals Arsenal on Saturday, live on talkSPORT.
Forest sources have also claimed Oliver Glasner and Andoni Iraola are admired by Marinakis as well as Fulham boss Marco Silva.
However, Bournemouth are relaxed about the future of Iraola despite the interest in the Spaniard.
Nuno's departure from the City Ground was confirmed on Monday night after weeks of speculation surrounding his future.
The Portuguese had been in charge of Forest for almost two years after replacing Steve Cooper in December 2023.
Having guided the club to safety at the end of that campaign, he achieved their highest finish for 30 years last season.
Their first league phase fixture sees the club travel to Spain to face Real Betis on September 24.
Postecoglou at Spurs
It is a competition which Postecoglou won with Spurs back in May.
The victory over Manchester United in the final ended the club's 17-year wait for a trophy.
However, Postecoglou was dismissed by Spurs at the end of the season before being replaced by Thomas Frank.
His exit came after two seasons in north London, which saw him take charge of 101 matches across all competitions.
Of those fixtures, Spurs were victorious in 47, giving Postecoglou a win rate of just over 46.5 per cent.
Having finished fifth in his debut season, though, Tottenham slumped to 17th place last term.
