Nottingham Forest has announced the appointment of Vítor Pereira as their new head coach until the summer of 2027. The English club is enduring a tough season, sitting 17th in the Premier League, just three points above the relegation zone.

The 57-year-old Portuguese tactician brings a wealth of international experience. He won the league title with FC Porto, then made his mark at Olympiakos and Fenerbahçe, before conquering China with Shanghai SIPG. He has also managed Corinthians and Flamengo in Brazil.

Nottingham Forest is counting on Pereira to restore stability, turn results around, and secure their Premier League status.
