According to British media GIVEMESPORT, Nottingham Forest chief football officer Ross Wilson is expected to leave office and take up the position of Newcastle sports director.
For Nottingham Forest, there are frequent changes this week. After the fire of Nuno, the team appointed Postkoglu as the new head coach for a two-year contract. In the next few days, the club's management is likely to usher in major adjustments.
Ross Wilson is about to leave his post as chief football officer of Nottingham Forest, and his next stop is expected to be Newcastle. Newcastle sees it as the candidate to replace the outgoing Paul Mitchell.
Wilson, 41, has been working at Nottingham Forest since April 2023, when Nottingham Forest reached an agreement on compensation plans with the Wanderer. After helping the team achieve a breakthrough in qualifying for European competition in the 2024/25 season, he has become an important decision maker in the club construction plan.
Although Nottingham Forest tends to retain Ross Wilson, his negotiations with Newcastle have entered a deeper stage. In addition, Eduardo joined Nottingham Forest as a new position as global football manager this summer, and the club has made plans for Ross Wilson's possible departure.
Ross Wilson has a close relationship with Newcastle coach Eddie Howe, while Eddie Howe has joined Saudi Public Investment Fund (the club's major shareholder) and co-owner James Ruben, which is a key factor in Ross Wilson's favor.
Postkoglu has proposed Scott Moon, who has worked with Tottenham Forest. Boss Evan Galos Marinakis is weighing the candidates, and relevant internal discussions are still in progress.
