Nottingham Forest has officially announced the hiring of Vitor Pereira as their new head coach after parting ways with Sean Dyche.
In a statement, the club expressed: “Nottingham Forest is pleased to confirm that Vitor Pereira has been appointed as head coach on an 18-month contract.”
He will be supported by a coaching team that includes Filipe Jorge Monteiro Almeida (assistant coach), Luis Miguel Moreira Da Silva (assistant coach), Bruno Filipe Araujo De Moura (head of physical performance and opposition analysis), and Pedro Simao Capela Silva Lopes (opposition analyst).
Earlier reports indicated that the Portuguese coach was the club’s top choice.
Pereira, 57, last managed in the Premier League with Wolves, where he was dismissed in November.
He successfully maintained his previous club’s top-flight status last season and now takes over at Forest, currently sitting in 17th place and just three points above the relegation zone.
Pereira marks the fourth managerial change for Forest this season, following Nuno Espirito Santo, Ange Postecoglou, and Dyche.
