Postecoglou takes charge of Nottingham Forest
London: Nottingham Forest appointed Ange Postecoglou as manager on Tuesday to replace Nuno Espirito Santo.
Nuno led Forest to European qualification for the first time in 30 years last season by finishing seventh in the Premier League.

But he became the first Premier League manager to lose his job this season after publicly stating that his relationship with Greek billionaire club owner Evangelos Marinakis had deteriorated.

Former Australia head coach Postecoglou takes over Forest after being removed by Tottenham Hotspur in June just days after winning the Europa League.

Despite ending Spurs' 17-year wait to win a trophy, the Australian was dismissed due to Tottenham's worst league season since 1976/77 as they finished 17th.

However, Marinakis backed the 60-year-old to continue his record of winning trophies at Tottenham, Celtic, Yokohama Marinos and during his spell in charge of Australia.
"We are bringing a coach to the club who has a proven and consistent record of winning trophies," said Marinakis.

"His experience of coaching teams at the highest level, along with his desire to build something special with us at Forest, makes him a fantastic person to help us on our journey and achieve consistently all our ambitions."

Postecoglou will take charge of Forest, who sit 10th in the Premier League on four points after three games, for the first time in Saturday's daunting trip to Arsenal.
