(Reuters) - Nottingham Forest have sacked manager Martin O'Neill after five months in charge, replacing him with former Stade Rennes boss Sabri Lamouchi, the Championship club said on Friday.

O'Neill, who took over in January and guided Forest to a ninth-place finish in the English second-tier, leaves the club less than a week after assistant Roy Keane's departure.
