Nottingham Forest Appoint Sean Dyche on 2027 Deal Ahead of Porto Tie

The 54-year-old is hired to restore structure to a relegation-zone side after rapid upheaval.

Overview

  • Dyche signs a contract to the summer of 2027, becoming Forest’s third manager of the season after Ange Postecoglou’s record-short 39-day stint.
  • He will take charge immediately, with his first match set for Thursday’s Europa League home game against Porto.
  • Former Forest players Ian Woan and Steve Stone join Dyche’s backroom staff as assistant coaches.
  • Forest sit 18th in the Premier League with five points from eight games and seek defensive stability and results.
  • The club considered Marco Silva and Roberto Mancini, but release-clause costs and PSR limits led them to the out-of-work Dyche.
