Another former teacher of Son Heung-min will be appointed to the place where his former teacher left.

Nottingham Forest announced on its official website on the 9th (Korea Standard Time) that it has replaced coach Nunu Espiritu Santo in three Premier League (EPL) games in the 2025-2026 season.

It was shocking news. Coach Nunu Santo rescued the team from the relegation zone as he led Nottingham in the middle of the 2023-2024 season. Having barely avoided relegation, Nottingham had a historic season under Nunu Santo last season for the first time in a long time. At one point in the season, it made such a splash that it even looked to advance to the European Champions League (UCL). In the end, Nottingham is able to enter the Europa League (UEL) and compete in the European competition for the first time in 30 years.




Conflicts between Nottingham owner Evangelos Marinakis, who is known as a eccentric personality, and newly appointed director Edu, have forced Nunu Santo to be replaced. Coach Nunu Santo was dissatisfied with the direction of the transfer market. "Squad configuration is too far behind. The planned things didn't work out properly, and the team's preparation wasn't perfect. I don't know what kind of squad it is. Our team has players who will go on loan. There is a big problem,' he said, openly complaining about the transfer market policy.

These public complaints deepened the conflict between the owner of the Marinakis and director Edu, and eventually ended with the replacement of coach Nunu Santo. Rumors of Nunu Santo's replacement have been raised since the first round of the league, and the person who has been talked about since then is Enze Postecoglou, who won the UEL trophy with Son Heung-min in June.

In the end, Nottingham decided to appoint Postecoglou. Multiple media outlets, including the British The Athletic, said on the 9th that "Postecoglou will be appointed as Nottingham's new coach after Nunu Santo's replacement." The appointment is expected to be officially announced within 24 hours, with Postecoglou set to lead the bench against Arsenal. "I plan to be with some of the coaches who were with me at Tottenham..." he reported.

Postecoglou has been linked with several clubs since his dismissal at Tottenham. The Athletic also received interest from Al Ahli and Brentford after stepping down as Tottenham head coach, but it did not lead to a contract. Brentford finally appointed Keith Andrews' explained.

Analysts say the friendship between Marinakis and Postecoglou was a decisive factor in the appointment. The Athletic said 'Marinakis recently praised Postecoglou and emphasized Greek ancestry. He said 'Postecoglou was always proud that he was Greek. When he led Tottenham to win the UEL, he also brought up Greece. It was a tremendous achievement with a team suffering from long-standing irrelevance, and he described Greece as 'informed through the process\'

Postecoglou's announcement to Nottingham will be finalized soon. There are already talks that Postecoglou appeared at Nottingham Training Center. It is expected that an interesting story will come out when Postecoglou leads Nottingham and meets Tottenham.
