Nottingham Forest's season has been marked by significant challenges, including the early departure of coach Nuno Espirito Santo after a fallout with the club's hierarchy. His exit followed just three games in charge and led to further instability before the appointment of Vitor Pereira in February. Under Pereira, the team managed to secure their position in the league, but aspirations for improvement remained unmet despite a substantial investment of £180 million. Looking ahead, the mandate for the summer is clear: establish stability as Pereira aims to solidify his role after agreeing to a new contract.
- •Nuno Espirito Santo left after three games, amid internal conflict.
- •Vitor Pereira appointed in February, guiding Forest to safety.
- •Forest invested £180 million but fell short of expectations.
- •Zach Abbott is a rising prospect under Pereira's guidance.
- •Stability is the key goal for the summer as contract renewals are planned.

"The turning point of the season was... It could be the fall out between Edu and Nuno Espirito Santo last summer, which ultimately paved the way for Nuno's departure after just three games and the chaos that came in the following weeks and months. Or it is appointing Vitor Pereira in February, who steadied the ship, reassured the players and guided Forest to safety.
