Alex McLeish's agent claims that the Scot will not be putting himself forward for the Nottingham Forest job.

Former Birmingham City manager Alex McLeish has ruled himself out of the running to take charge at Nottingham Forest.

The Championship club are currently looking for a boss after Steve Cotterill was sacked on Thursday by new owners the Al-Hasawi family.

"Alex is flattered to be linked with such a club like Nottingham Forest," said McLeish's agent Rob Segal. "Forest is a fantastic club and it would be a great job but the timing is not right."

Glenn Hoddle and Darren Ferguson are believed to be the two main contenders for the role.
