Forest appoint Wilson after he leaves post as Rangers sporting director

Nottingham Forest have appointed Ross Wilson as chief football officer after he left his post as Rangers sporting director.

The 39-year-old, who has also worked at Falkirk, Watford, Huddersfield Town and Southampton, departs Rangers after nearly four years at the club.

Wilson replaces Filippo Giraldi - who was sacked as sporting director on Tuesday - as Forest fight to get out of the Premier League relegation zone.

During his four years at Ibrox, Wilson helped Rangers win their 55th top-flight title under Steven Gerrard before the Englishman moved to Aston Villa.

Bidding farewell to Rangers, Wilson said: "I would like to thank the players, led superbly by captain James Tavernier, and the manager Michael Beale, as well as all those who have come before them in the three and a half years I have spent at Rangers.

"I would like to thank Douglas Park, Stewart Robertson and the Board for their support. I wish John Bennett - a true Rangers man - a successful chairmanship. This is a great club, and there are so many reasons for Rangers to face the decades ahead with optimism and pride."
