Nottingham Forest Appoints Postecoglou to Restore Club's Status

Ange Postecoglou has been appointed as Nottingham Forest’s new manager, aiming to end the club’s 35-year wait for a major trophy and restore it to its "rightful place" in English football. The Australian coach, who recently led Tottenham to Europa League glory, brings an attacking style focused on winning and scoring goals, contrasting with the more cautious approach of his predecessor, Nuno Espirito Santo. Forest’s owner, Evangelos Marinakis, praised Postecoglou’s track record and ambition, highlighting his success and pride in his Greek heritage. Despite criticism that Postecoglou plays only one style, he insists his approach is about winning and exciting football, emphasizing adaptability and team hard work. Forest, back in European competition for the first time in 30 years, seek to build on their recent seventh-place Premier League finish under Postecoglou’s leadership. The manager’s first matches include a Premier League game against Arsenal and Forest’s Europa League opener against Real Betis.
