Nottingham Forest confirm the appointment of Oliver Glasner as their new head coach following his departure from Crystal Palace. The Austrian coach is expected to lead Forest in the Premier League after taking over from Vitor Pereira, and multiple reports describe him as the club’s fifth permanent head coach in less than a year.
Glasner leaves Crystal Palace after deciding not to renew his contract, with outlets noting he delivered Palace’s first major silverware. During his time at the club, he leads them to win the 2025 FA Cup. Sources also add that Palace subsequently secure European success, with Glasner’s team winning the Conference League final in May.
Forest’s confirmation marks a fresh start for a club that has made repeated managerial changes. Glasner outlines ambitions to move the team forward, including a desire to take Forest “to the next level,” as he begins his role at the City Ground.
