Nottingham Forest made a concrete attempt to hire Abel Ferreira in September, according to ESPN Brazil.
The club approached the Portuguese coach right after Nuno Espírito Santo’s dismissal.
Abel turned down the offer, choosing to stay with Palmeiras as he prepared to renew his contract and lead the club through the season’s decisive stages.
A renewal of his contract is now close to being signed, extending his stay until December 2027, with no penalty clause for either side.
This freedom could be decisive if Nottingham Forest knock on his door again.
