Nottingham Forest have sacked Sean Dyche as head coach after just 114 days in charge, according to a statement from the club.
The decision comes after Forest were held to a goalless draw at home by bottom club Wolves on Wednesday, leaving them just three points above the Premier League relegation zone with 12 games remaining.
As reported by BBC Sport, Dyche, 54, succeeded Ange Postecoglou in October and had signed a contract until the summer of 2027. A statement from the club read: "Nottingham Forest Football Club can confirm that Sean Dyche has been relieved of his duties as head coach. We would like to thank Sean and his staff for their efforts during their time at the club and we wish them the best of luck for the future. We will be making no further comment at this time."
Police and Authority Response
There is no police response to report in this matter as it is a club decision.

Dyche took over at the City Ground with Forest 18th in the table after one win in eight games during a difficult start to the season. After a 2-0 defeat by Bournemouth in his first match in charge, Dyche led Forest to four wins and one draw in their next seven to guide them out of the drop zone.
Investigation and Next Steps
Forest are now searching for their fourth manager of the season, following the departures of Nuno Espirito Santo, Ange Postecoglou, and now Sean Dyche. The club will be making no further comment at this time.
