Nottingham Forest are closing in on appointing Sean Dyche as their new head coach following the sacking of Ange Postecoglou on Saturday. The Australian tactician was dismissed after a dismal run of results, culminating in a 3-0 home defeat to Chelsea at City Ground. Postecoglou leaves without a single win to his name, ending a short and turbulent tenure.
Forest had initially held advanced talks with Roberto Mancini, but negotiations collapsed over contractual disagreements. Sources close to the club confirmed that Mancini’s camp failed to reach a consensus on key terms, forcing the club to pivot quickly in their search for a new manager.
Dyche, who last managed Everton and previously spent a decade at Burnley, has emerged as the leading candidate. Known for his pragmatic style and ability to stabilize struggling sides, Dyche is seen as a safe pair of hands to guide Forest through a challenging Premier League campaign.An official announcement is expected soon, with Dyche reportedly already in advanced discussions with the club’s hierarchy. Forest fans will be hoping his arrival marks a turning point after a chaotic start to the season.
