The 2025–26 season is the 160th season in the history of Nottingham Forest Football Club, and the club's fourth consecutive season competing in the Premier League. In addition to the domestic league, the club is also participating in the FA Cup, the EFL Cup, and the UEFA Europa League, the latter being the club's first season in a UEFA competition for 29 years.

Managerial changes

On 8 September, head coach Nuno Espírito Santo was relieved from his duties.[1] A day later, former Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou was announced as Forest's new head coach.[2] Just over a month later on 18 October, Postecoglou was dismissed following the side's 0–3 home loss to Chelsea; Forest failed to win any of their eight matches while he was at the helm.[4] Three days later, Sean Dyche was announced as the new head coach, on a two-year contract.[3]
