Nuno Espirito Santo is convinced that “there will be a resolution” about his Nottingham Forest Future, while the “unbreakable” band of his players greetings with the club's supporters.
The preparations for Forest for Sunday's meeting with Crystal Palace were disrupted as the position of Nuno as head coach became the subject of intense speculation.
The Portuguese told the media on Friday that his relationship with forest owner Evangelos Marinakis was stretched, the last to look for options to replace him in the city ground dugout.
Nuno, however, stated that he was not trying to take a step away from Forest, who pulled 1-1 with Palace after Callum Hudson-Odoi had canceled the strike of Ismaila Sarr.
The former Wolves and Tottenham Boss are planned for discussions with Forest's worldwide head of football Edu this week, and hopes that there will be a solution for the current Saga.
“I believe that is the only way to operate in a football club if everyone is on the same page,” Nuno told Sky Sports.
“It helps in the same direction, so hopefully we can do it this week and continue – and take these nonsense questions and stories away from us daily [lives].
“I am a person who thinks a lot before I say something. I say this because I believe that things can improve, but this is a time to ignore the sound and concentrate on what I have to do. My work is clear.
“Of course there will be a resolution. Everything will certainly be fine. It is the time to sit down and talk. More important is how we play football and I think we improve, try some things and that is where my focus is.”
About the supporters of the club, which he greeted full -time, he added: “The band made between the team and the fans is there to stay. It's unbreakable because of the fantastic moments we had last season.
“It was a wonderful journey – it will forever get stuck in our memories. Whatever happens, we will have this respect and mutual love.”

Just like Forest, Palace also maintained their undefeated start of the season in all competitions.
The Eagles played their fifth draw in six Premier League meetings with the difficult trees at the end of a week in which Ebereechi Eze left the club for Arsenal.
However, it has been a quiet transfer window in terms of income for Palace, who only spent £ 3 million to four players.
Nevertheless, Oliver Glasner is convinced that the situation will change and that new players will arrive before the window closes.
“I think everyone can see that we cannot afford to lose appetizers,” he said. “It's not that easy to go with a week.
“We need players to get better and keep the competition high. This is what we are looking for, and I am pretty sure that we will get the right one.”
He added to the game: “It is a deserved draw for both teams. [In the] The first half we took the lead and in the second half the pressure increased. Nottingham Forest earned the equalizer. We have lost the possession too quickly and too easily. We must be more efficient.
“It is now our fourth game and many players have played every minute. We know this. We have eight, nine or 10 days to strengthen the team, and I am pretty sure that we will do this.”
