Overview

  • Forest confirmed Nuno’s dismissal in the early hours of Tuesday and later announced former Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou as head coach.
  • Postecoglou’s contract is understood to run until 2027, according to multiple reports, with owner Evangelos Marinakis hailing his trophy-winning pedigree.
  • The change comes after public tensions between Nuno, Marinakis and new global head of football Edu Gaspar, following Nuno’s criticism of transfer business.
  • Postecoglou, who won the Europa League with Spurs before being sacked in June after a 17th-place league finish, is set to debut at Arsenal on Saturday.
  • With the transfer window closed until January, he inherits a squad that sits on four points from three league games and faces an imminent Europa League campaign.
