Nottingham Forest admires a “incredible” first league manager, Evangelos Marinakis seeking to “move quickly” to name a replacement for Nuno Espirito Santo.
Nuno dismissed after only three Premier League games
The problems have been preparing for the City Ground for some time now, Nuno not helping the situation when he revealed that his relationship with Marinakis was no longer the same as in the 2024-25 campaign, saying: “I always had a very good relationship with the owner – last season, we were very close and spoke daily. This season, it’s not so good”, “
“Our relationship has changed and we are not so close. Everyone at the club should be together, but it is not reality.”
The 51-year-old man initially kept his job, but Forest announced the decision to dismiss their manager on Monday evening, Marinakis dismissing the Portuguese coach at the back of a 3-0 defeat at home against West Ham United.
It is a controversial decision to dismiss the manager who led delicate trees in Europe for the first time in 30 years, which makes Marinakis even more crucial to obtain the next meeting, with Angel Postcoglou to appoint.
By taking to X, the journalist of Sky Sports, Rob Dorsett, revealed that the director of Crystal Palace, Oliver Glasner, is one of the managers “admired” by the hierarchy of the Nottingham forest, but Postcoglou seems to be the man who ready to advance the forest.
Glasner could have been an “incredible” appointment
It seems that the Austrian, who plays a 3-4-2-1 system, would have been a popular meeting among the forest fans, given what he has achieved since his arrival at Crystal Palace, notably the Eagles to the glory of the FA Cup last season.
However, the 51-year-old was a controversial meeting from a point of view of the palace, since the forest replaced the Glasner team in the Europa League this season, due to problems related to multi-club property.
The president of Crystal Palace, Steve Parish, praised the “incredible” job that Glasner made, while adding: “He loves football, always believes that we can win and he instills that to his players.”
However, Postcoglou can also be an exciting meeting, since the Australian is well known for an offensive play style, with the first Tottenham Hotspur, 60 years old, to the glory of the Europa League last season.
