Nottingham Forest Sack Ange Postecoglou Minutes After 3-0 Chelsea Defeat

The club launched a replacement search following a home loss that left Forest just above the relegation places.

Overview

  • Postecoglou was dismissed roughly 15–20 minutes after full-time, ending a 39–40 day tenure with eight matches and no wins across all competitions.
  • Forest confirmed the decision in a brief statement after owner Evangelos Marinakis was seen leaving his seat during the second half at the City Ground.
  • Reports say the club is targeting a new head coach, with Marco Silva and Sean Dyche among names under consideration, while Brendan Rodgers has been linked for a longer-term move.
  • Forest sit 17th in the Premier League and turn quickly to a Europa League trip to Porto on Thursday during a period of short-term instability.
  • The sacking followed a sequence of poor results, including a late Carabao Cup collapse to Swansea and mixed Europa League outings, as supporter unrest grew.
