Nottingham Forest announced its renewal of coach Nunu on the 21st (Korea time). Nottingham signed a new three-year contract with Nunu until 2028" he said.
Nunu, from Portugal, took the helm of relegation-oriented Nottingham in December 2023, replacing Stique Cooper. Nottingham survived after competing for survival until the last day of the 2023-2024 season. Nunu led Nottingham to 17th place, the remaining Maginot line, after four points were deducted for violating the financial soundness (profit and sustainability rules).
The 2024-2025 season was completely different. The relegation zone expectations were wrong. Nottingham went on a remarkable run to reach the Champions League, crossing 'Big4'. However, the period was disappointing.
Nottingham ended the season in seventh place with only three wins, two draws and five losses in their last 10 English Premier League (EPL) matches. The dream of entering the European stage for the first time in 10 years since the 1995-1996 season was also opened. Nottingham qualified for the Europa Conference League Playoffs.
Nunu is also linked to Tottenham. He replaced Jose Mourinho at Tottenham's helm in July 2021. However, he was victimized by Chairman Daniel Levy's 'ruthless dismissal'.

Nunu signed a two-year contract with Tottenham, but led only 17 games (8 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses) and dropped out in four months. Antonio Conte filled the position where he stepped down.
Coach Nunu, who returned to the EPL after serving as Saudi Arabia's coach Al Itihad, gave a big twist in Nottingham. After renewing his contract, he said "I'm happy to continue my journey at this fantastic football club"Since arriving in Nottingham, he has worked very hard to create a special bond between players, fans and everyone at the club. Thanks to that, we were able to make a big achievement last season."
Nottingham owner Evangelos Marinakis, known for his "freak owner"Nunu has made a huge impact and performed very well in his time with us so far. He has shown that he is an expert at maximizing players' performance and developing players, while at the same time being good at including our young talents in the first team" he evaluated.
And "We have a strong and robust relationship, and above all, we are writing a new history of Nottingham, sharing dreams and ambitions." The owner of the Manirakis, a Greek businessman, is a 's football tycoon' which owns not only Nottingham but also Olympiacos, AC Monza and Hiu Ab.
