Overview
- Levski Sofia announced that Edu is one of five appointees to a newly formed board of directors, but the club has not disclosed a specific job title and plans to elect formal roles at its first meeting.
- Edu departed Nottingham Forest after being removed from day-to-day duties by owner Evangelos Marinakis and having his global football responsibilities reallocated within Forest’s football operation.
- At Forest his remit had covered recruitment, squad planning and oversight across Marinakis’s wider club network, including links to Olympiakos in Greece and Rio Ave in Portugal.
- Levski said it expects Edu’s experience in recruitment, talent development and organisational building to help the club sustain domestic success and improve its structure for European competition.
- The swift move underlines how top football executives are rapidly redeployed between clubs and signals that Levski’s incoming board will be a key locus for decisions about sporting strategy and stability going forward.
