Former Nottingham Forest midfielder Steve Hodge is confident Vitor Pereira will get “a good job somewhere else” after a successful stint at the City Ground.
Pereira was appointed in February as Forest’s fourth manager of the season when he replaced Sean Dyche.

He guided them to 16th in the Premier League and to the Europa League semi-finals, where they lost to eventual winners Aston Villa.
It is understood Pereira was informed of the club’s decision to part company with him late on Tuesday evening – a move which blindsided the former Wolves boss.
On whether he has sympathy for Pereira, Hodge told BBC Radio Nottingham’s Shut Up And Show More Football podcast: “I don’t because managers know the ground can be shifted from under your feet very quickly and they are well paid.
“He will get a good job somewhere else. I’m sure he’s a bit frustrated but he will have moved.

“His CV look good again after keeping Forest up and reaching a European semi-final. His few months at the club have made him look like a manager you would want [at your club] again.”
