Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo has signed a new three-year contract, rewarded for leading the club back to European competition.
The 51-year-old, appointed in December 2023, steered Forest to a seventh-place Premier League finish, securing a spot in the Europa Conference League – their first European qualification since 1995/96.
This achievement follows seasons where Forest largely battled relegation after their 23-year top-flight absence.
Despite a late-season dip and a notable on-pitch confrontation with owner Evangelos Marinakis, Nuno expressed delight in continuing his journey.
“I am delighted to be able to continue our journey at this fantastic football club,” Nuno stated, thanking Marinakis for his “constant support and backing.”
Marinakis reciprocated the sentiment, praising Nuno’s impact and sharing a vision for Forest to once again compete for major trophies.
“We share the same dream and ambition of writing a new history for Nottingham Forest, competing in the Premier League and in Europe and winning trophies,” he affirmed.
