Nottingham Forest plan Nuno Espirito Santo contract extension for 2025

Nuno Espirito Santo Nottingham Forest 2025 contract extension talks are underway as club owner Evangelos Marinakis looks to secure the Portuguese manager’s future. According to Portuguese outlet O Jogo, Marinakis is eager to dismiss speculation of a summer exit and reward Espirito Santo for leading Nottingham Forest to an unexpected seventh-place finish in the Premier League.

Despite recent rumours linking Espirito Santo with moves to Saudi Arabia and Roma, reports suggest the Forest boss is set to remain at the City Ground beyond next summer. Marinakis, determined to put the gossip to bed, is preparing to offer a new deal — although the contract length remains undisclosed.

Espirito Santo’s future had been questioned after a heated touchline exchange with Marinakis earlier this month, but the owner has publicly labelled those claims as “fake news.” His show of support signals a long-term commitment to Espirito Santo’s project, aiming to build on this season’s success

Forest are set to enter the 2025/26 season with renewed optimism under Nuno Espirito Santo’s leadership. Fans will watch closely to see how contract talks progress and whether key signings can push the club into the European places.
