Nottingham Forest have named Nuno Espirito Santo as their new manager to replace Steve Cooper, the Premier League club said on Wednesday.
Forest appointed the former Wolverhampton Wanderers and Tottenham Hotspur manager after parting ways with Cooper following five defeats in six games which saw them slip to 17th in the table, five points above the relegation zone.
“Nuno joins the club on a two-and-a-half-year contract and will take charge of his first match on Saturday when Forest face Bournemouth at The City Ground,” the club said in a statement.
