Latest Nottingham Forest news as Nuno Espirito Santo's Reds prepare for start of 2024/25 Premier League campaign
Holding court as sunrays streamed through the Turf Moor press conference room, Nottingham Forest head coach Nuno Espirito Santo had a clear point he wanted to make.
Forest want to push on in the Premier League this term. They have had two successive relegation battles after securing their return to the top table in dramatic style; two years where nails have been bitten and permutations pored over in the latter stages of the campaigns. The shipping magnate has made no secret of the fact he wants the club to be challenging further up the table. Indeed, he spoke of targeting trophies in the hours after that magical day at Wembley two years ago. His expectations haven’t exactly been tempered in the intervening period.
Indeed, there is plenty of cause for optimism among Reds fans. Progress is the watchword around the City Ground at the moment, and the hope is that supporters won’t be chewing their fingernails or calculating final-day survival permutations come May. Nevertheless, do not underestimate just how valuable having uninterrupted time with his players can be for Nuno. He has described pre-season as the “most important” period of the year and felt he missed out by being appointed Trentside in the middle of the last campaign.

The man tasked with fulfilling them is Nuno. This will be the 50-year-old’s first full season at the helm. He will no doubt hope it proves to be a somewhat quieter one than last time around. The former Wolverhampton Wanderers chief managed to successfully steer Forest through those somewhat choppy waters, though. Moreover, the team showed some promising glimpses under his stewardship.
“I think the team started to enjoy themselves because we have been able to start creating a routine. We had the same players playing together over and over again, and that reflects in the performance. “It was the first time we as a coaching staff had joined a club in the middle of a season. It was a new experience,” he explained on that day at Turf Moor.
