Nottingham Forest appoint Alex McLeish as the club's new manager following the sacking of Sean O'Driscoll.

Nottingham Forest have confirmed the appointment of Alex McLeish as the club's new manager.

The Scot replaces Sean O'Driscoll, who was relieved of his duties at the City Ground on Wednesday evening.

Chairman Fawaz Al Hasawi said: "I'm delighted to welcome Alex to our club and look forward to working with him.

"Alex took Birmingham to promotion from the Championship and has great experience of working in the Premier League.

"He's hungry for more success and I believe he's the man who can help us fulfill our ambition of making it to the Premier League."

McLeish has been out of a job since being sacked by Aston Villa at the end of last season.
