Nunu Espiritu Santo has been replaced as Nottingham Forest coach. Former Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou is likely to replace him. Both coaches have something in common in that they are coaches from Tottenham.
The British Telegraph reported on the 9th (Korea time) "Nunu Espiritu Santo's days at Nottingham Forest are over"The club expects coach Enze Postecoglou to take over as the new head coach within this week," he reported.
Nottingham Forest said in a statement from the club that "Nottingham Forest, after considering the recent situation, confirms that Nunu Espiritu Santo has been relieved of his duties as head coach."
The club thanked him for his contribution to this very successful era. In particular, his role in the 2024-2025 season will be remembered forever in the club's history. "He, who played a pivotal role in last season's success, remains a special presence in our journey.'
The news was expected to some extent in the face of tensions between Nunu and the club's leadership recently, but Nottingham Forest fans are bound to be shocked. Nunu previously said his relationship with football director Edu Gaspar, who joined from Arsenal, had collapsed. This eventually led to his resignation.
Next coaches include Postecoglou and Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers and Jose Mourinho, who was replaced by Turkiye Fenerbahce.
Nottingham's top choice is reportedly Postecoglou. Postecoglou was dismissed despite winning the Europa League at Tottenham Hotspur last summer. Nottingham leaders view Postecoglou as the right man because they want aggressive football. Postecoglou uses tactics to pressure and attack opponents hard while raising the line as much as possible.
The media explained that `Suspects have been raised that Nunu directly expressed dissatisfaction with his relationship with the club and made him question his commitment.' `This seems to have angered the owner of the Marinakis, and the relationship between the manager and the owner has become virtually irreversible.'
