Nottingham Forest have announced the appointment of Sean Dyche as their new head coach.
Dyche takes over from Ange Postecoglou, who was sacked by the Tricky Trees following their 3-0 defeat to Chelsea last Saturday.
“Dyche brings the perfect blend of character, tactical acumen and proven achievement to guide the club through its next chapter,” Forest said in a statement.
“Having managed more than 330 Premier League matches in his career to date, Dyche has built teams defined by defensive organisation, resilience, and strength from set pieces – qualities that align closely with the current squad’s attributes and the club’s footballing identity.
“As a former Forest youth player who lives locally, Dyche also has a deep understanding of the values and pride of Forest and its supporters.
“With his character, tactical acumen and man-management skills, his appointment represents the best opportunity for a successful and competitive season across both domestic and European competitions.”
