Nuno Espirito Santo has signed a new three-year contract at Nottingham Forest until June 2028.
Espirito Santo arrived at Forest in December 2023 and managed to keep them up on the final day with a 2-1 victory at relegated Burnley.
He then proceeded to guide the Tricky Trees to UEFA Conference League qualification last season with a seventh-placed Premier League finish, in a campaign which saw them reach the FA Cup semi-finals where they lost to Manchester City.
Forest also clinched away wins at Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham in a memorable season for the club.
Espirito Santo’s efforts consequently were awarded with a new three-year contract which he was “delighted” to sign as he praised fans and owner, Evangelos Marinakis for their support.
“Since we arrived at Forest, we have worked extremely hard to create a special bond between the players, the fans and everyone at the Club, which helped us achieve great things last season.
“I would like to thank our owner, Mr. Marinakis, for his constant support and backing. It is important to me to share a strong relationship with our ownership and we have thoroughly enjoyed working together ever since I arrived at Forest.
“Now is the time to work harder than ever as we strive for more special memories together.”
Marinakis added that Espirito Santo has made an impressive impact on the club with excellent player development, with view to fighting for trophies in coming seasons.
“Nuno has made a great impact and performed very well during his time with us so far.
“He has demonstrated that he maximises player performance and is an expert at developing players, whilst also embedding our young talent into the first team set-up.
“We enjoy a strong and solid relationship together and, above all, 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 for our great club!”
