Nottingham Forest find themselves in a precarious position as pressure grows on manager Ange Postecoglou following a series of disappointing results that have left the club teetering just above the relegation zone.
Since taking the helm on September 9, the Australian manager has struggled, with Forest losing five out of their last seven matches and drawing two, failing to secure a single victory. The team’s recent loss to Newcastle United has further intensified the crisis, leading to discussions between Postecoglou and club owner Evangelos Marinakis, as reported by the Daily Mail.
Forest currently sit 17th in the Premier League standings, only one point clear of relegation, a stark contrast to the hopes raised among supporters following their impressive 2024/25 season.
Amidst the growing uncertainty, former Fulham boss Marco Silva has emerged as a potential long-term target for Forest. While any approach for Silva is unlikely before the end of the season, his successful track record and current work at Fulham have garnered attention from clubs across Europe.
With challenging fixtures against the likes of Chelsea, Porto, and Bournemouth looming in a ten-day span from October 18 to 26, Forest faces a tough road ahead. Furthermore, Marinakis’s recent appearance alongside Rafael Benitez at Arsenal’s Champions League fixture has fueled speculation about potential successors to Postecoglou, with Benitez expressing interest in a return to the Premier League.
