Overview
- Levski Sofia announced on Monday, September 14 that Edu Gaspar is one of five new directors as the club reshapes its board after winning the Bulgarian title.
- His exit from Nottingham Forest was confirmed on September 7 when his contract as global head of football was terminated following a troubled 2025–26 spell with duties across Evangelos Marinakis’ clubs.
- The club praised Edu’s experience in sports strategy, talent selection, academy work and organisational building but has not assigned him a specific title on the new board.
- The five-person board includes Daniel Borimirov, Claudio Pracownik, Felipe Berliner and Matthew Cherry and will elect a chair and an executive director at its first meeting to define operational duties.
- Levski’s overhaul aims to turn last season’s championship into sustained domestic success and steadier European runs, and Edu’s role could shape transfer planning, data and academy projects that affect coaching and player recruitment.
