Forest parts ways with head coach Pereira

Nottingham Forest has parted ways with head coach Vitor Pereira, concluding his short-term tenure at the City Ground. The Premier League club announced the decision on Thursday, bringing an end to the Portuguese manager's time with the team.

Pereira, 57, took over in February and managed to steer the struggling side to safety in the Premier League. He also led them to a notable run in the Europa League, reaching the semi-finals. Despite these achievements, the club decided to make a change.

"We would like to place on record our sincere thanks to Vitor and his team for their hard work and commitment throughout their time at the club. They represented Forest with enormous dedication," the club stated in a release. The statement acknowledged Pereira's efforts and dedication during his time at the helm.

The departure highlights the significant managerial instability at Nottingham Forest. Pereira was the fourth permanent head coach during a tumultuous last season, which saw the exits of Nuno Espirito Santo, Ange Postecoglou, and Sean Dyche. British media reports suggest that former Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner is the expected successor to Pereira.
