Next Nottingham Forest Manager Odds: After Nuno Espirito Santo

Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis is not known for being the easiest person to work for, but Martins was able to lead the Greek's club Olympiacos to three straight titles from 2020 to 2022.

Martins was sacked after a defeat in Champions League qualifying and has been at Al-Gharafa SC in the Qatar Stars League for the past two years, so the Premier League would be a jump.

Spanish coach Lopetegui was included in the next Nottingham Forest manager betting odds before Nuno got the job, so it is possible he might be considered for the role once more.

But a poor spell in charge of West Ham has hit his reputation and it might be the case that his Premier League options are now going to be more limited as a result.

Dyche played under the late, great Brian Clough at Forest, though most of his career came elsewhere.

Seen as a pragmatist, Dyche's style of football could be off-putting for Forest, but few managers are as capable of grinding out results when clubs are in tough situations. Forest might see themselves as being able to attract higher-profile managers than Dyche, though.

Former Freiburg boss Streich is still mulling over his next move after leaving the club in 2024. The charismatic German had been at the club for nearly 30 years with highlights of his long spell in the dugout including reaching the Europa League knockout phase.

Svensson's stellar work with Mainz included leading the club to survival in the Bundesliga against the odds, then competing for European competitions.

That earned him a move to Union Berlin, but he struggled to make an impact and has been out of work since losing that job in December 2024.

Great work at nearby West Brom earned Corberan a big move to Valencia in December 2024.

A Premier League job might just tempt the former goalkeeper back to English football, though.

Stuttgart were bottom of the Bundesliga when German coach Hoeness took over in April 2023 and, incredibly, they finished second the following year. Could Forest tempt him?

Son of Forest icon Clough, Nigel's managerial career has been spent in the Football League where he has done fine work with clubs such as Derby County and Mansfield Town.

Clough, who played over 400 times for Forest, seems unlikely to ever get a shot at the Premier League, but they would surely be the team to give him a go, even if it would be a huge shock.
