NOTTINGHAM FOREST appointed former Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner as their new head coach today.
The 51-year-old guided Palace to their first ever major silverware, the FA Cup, in 2025, following it up with winning the Community Shield, cementing his legacy in May when the Eagles lifted the Conference League trophy.
Previously the Austrian steered Eintracht Frankfurt to victory in the 2021-22 Europa League, their first major European trophy in more than four decades.
Glasner said: “I’m delighted to join Nottingham Forest as head coach.
“Our aim is to build a team that can help take the club to the next level in the years ahead and that our supporters can be proud of.”
Glasner succeeds Vitor Pereira, who said last week he was taken by “complete surprise and without any warning” by the news that his time at the City Ground had come to an end.
