Aitor Karanka has left as the manager of Nottingham Forest.
Dexter Blackstock has stated on Twitter that Nottingham Forest should appoint Chris Cohen as their new manager.
Forest are on the hunt for a new manager following the departure of Aitor Karanka on Friday.
The Reds are seventh in the Championship table at the moment with 39 points from 26 matches, just four points behind sixth-placed Derby County.
Blackstock was on the books of Forest from 2009 until 2016, and the 32-year-old believes that Cohen should be the new manger of the Reds.
The 31-year-old retired from professional football at the end of the 2017-18 season due to injury after playing for the Reds from 2007 and is a former teammate of Blackstock at the City Ground.
Risky appointment for Nottingham Forest?
Cohen knows Forest inside out, and having played for the Reds for over a decade, he knows how much the fans want promotion.
However, given that the Reds are in a very good position to finish in the Championship playoffs this season, the club do need to appoint an experienced manager who can take the team forward.
