We called it the Premier League’s most foolish managerial sacking, when Nottingham Forest owner Marinakis tipped out Sean Dyche, nominated for the Best Premier League Manager award last month, the man you want to have with you when the battle for survival in the top flight begins. For the Forest owner, this is unfortunately just more of the same. Nuno Espirito Santo, Ange Postecoglou and Sean Dyche have all disappeared this season, now the next coach is ready. With 12 games left in the season, the likelihood is at least high that he will keep his job all the way through, but in the case of Forest, it is not good to know.
So who is brought in for the job Sean Dyche shouldn’t already be able to do? Vitor Pereira.

After Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis again tapped the panic button, the Greek billionaire goes back to “the familiar”. When Greek-born Ange Postecoglou was brought in, this was a coach Evangelos himself thought was perfect. 8 games later, Postecoglu was history.
According to The Athletic , Marinakis brings in Vitor Pereira, who was sacked at Wolverhampton in the first part of the season, but who saved Wolves last season from relegation despite a difficult start. In addition, Forest owner Marinakis has a shared past with Pereira from Olympiakos, where the Portuguese led the club to a Greek championship.
