In a statement, Forest noted, “Nottingham Forest is delighted to confirm the appointment of Sean Dyche as the Club’s new Head Coach, following a thorough recruitment process led by Global Head of Football, Edu Gaspar, and Global Technical Director, George Syrianos.

“The former Forest youth player joins the Club on a contract running until the summer of 2027 and will take charge of his first match on Thursday night as The Reds take on FC Porto in the Europa League.”

The former Burnley manager will be joined by his experienced coaching team of Ian Woan and Steve Stone both former Nottingham Forest players who together made more than 400 appearances for the Reds during the 1990s.

Dyche has been out of work since January after he was dismissed by Everton following a poor run of results that left them one point above the Premier League relegation zone.
