We report the discovery of an optical nova candidate in M 31 on 10*120s stacked unfiltered CCD images obtained with a 0.45m f/2.8 reflector and a SBIG STL-11000M CCD Camera (3008 pixels x 2674 pixels each 9 x 9 micron square), of the Observatorio de La Sagra, Spain, on 2008 Jun 26.11 with a magnitude of 16.1. The object is visible on all individual images. The position for the nova candidate is RA = 00h42m27.81s, Dec = +41d14'48.2" (J2000, accuracy of 0.4"), which is 186" west and 80" south of the core of M 31.
