Nottingham Forest has appointed Dyche as the new manager to replace the sacked Postkoglu. According to sources from the British media GIVEMESPORT, the two parties began preliminary contact during the international match and further advanced the negotiations after the loss to Chelsea last weekend.
Last Saturday, Nottingham Forest suffered a 0-3 defeat to Chelsea, resulting in the team having failed to win since its first game of the season against Brentford. This Friday, they will face Porto in the Europa League.
The 54-year-old Dyche has been looking for new coaching opportunities since being fired by Everton in January this year. This time, Postkoglu became Nottingham Forest's third head coach this season, after Nuno was also fired by the club in September. Reporter Romano confirmed that the two parties have reached a verbal agreement on a contract until June 2027. He will be responsible for leading the team away from the Premier League relegation zone.
Sources said that Dyche is only willing to accept a long-term contract and is not interested in a short-term transitional role. Therefore, after the defeat against Chelsea, the two parties quickly finalized the cooperation. Dyche has extensive top-flight coaching experience, having served as head coach at Burnley and Everton. His first assignment will be against Porto in the Europa League.
Ditch will bring two Nottingham Forest legends Ian Vaughan and Steve Stone as members of his coaching team. It is understood that Dyche's preferred tactical style is considered to be very suitable for the current team. Although currently in the bottom three of the Premier League standings, the club's senior management still believes that the team has the ability to qualify for the European Cup. This is why the club quickly changed its coach.
Initially, Nottingham Forest owner Marinakis contacted Dyche to inquire about his interest in coaching. However, sources pointed out that after Postkoglu's departure, global director Edu and technical director George Silanos led the entire coaching process.
