Forest weigh up sacking Nuno Espírito Santo after tense transfer window
Nottingham Forest are reportedly weighing up parting ways with Nuno Espírito Santo, with Marca and Matteo Moretto citing tensions between the owner Evangelos Marinakis and the coach tied to recent transfer decisions.
Espírito Santo signed a new three-year contract in June, saying he was excited to continue the project. Forest opened the new Premier League season with a 3-1 win over Brentford, and while the coach praised the energy and atmosphere at City Ground, background reporting suggests the club are already evaluating alternative options.
Key Takeaways
"We are very far off in terms of the squad."
Spirited admission from Espírito Santo about squad readiness ahead of the season.
"Nottingham Forest is considering sacking Nuno Espírito Santo."
Statement attributed to Moretto regarding the club’s coaching future.
"Today we couldn’t have asked for anymore, the City Ground was loud and bouncing, it was a beautiful day for us."

These reports reveal how fragile stability can be at clubs chasing rapid progress. A strong start on day one can still coexist with off-field tensions that threaten long-term planning and squad coherence.
If owners intervene in coaching choices, the value of continuity falls and players sense uncertainty. The risk is that ambition becomes noise without a clear, shared plan.
Highlights
- Ambition needs a plan that outlasts the headlines
- If the top is at odds with the coach the squad bears the cost
- One win on day one should not mask deeper tensions
- Stability is the quiet win clubs should chase
Tensions around ownership and coaching create potential instability
The reports of internal tensions between owner Evangelos Marinakis and Nuno Espírito Santo, coupled with transfer window friction, raise concerns about stability and long-term planning at Nottingham Forest.
Ambition in football needs a clear, steady hand more than headlines.
