​When Vitor Pereira was appointed, many viewed it as a temporary move unlikely to extend beyond the season. Yet the reaction shifted as his tenure unfolded, delivering an impressive unbeaten run to secure safety, a European semi-final, and standout performances. Pereira helped restore smiles and encouraged the team to express themselves, transforming a chaotic campaign into a period of positivity. This summer, with numerous managerial changes underway, Forest emerged as a club that could offer stability, making the prospect of bringing in Oliver Glasner a surprising but tantalizing possibility. If Forest can recruit Glasner, it would soften the blow of any upheaval and generate excitement about what the future might hold under his leadership.
Supporters will remain grateful to Pereira for stepping in at a crucial moment and rescuing a season that threatened to unravel. The club had often looked chaotic, at times even a laughing stock, yet Pereira’s calm demeanor and the way the players responded earned widespread appreciation from fans. Nevertheless, there is growing excitement about Glasner, who instilled a winning mentality at Crystal Palace and helped the team win three trophies, albeit not as a pre-existing trophy-winning side. Glasner has been linked with several high-profile roles in the Premier League and beyond, but his decision to join Forest—despite the club not currently competing in Europe—represents a notable coup and a chance to work with one of the sport’s most in-demand managers.
He has been highly successful in recent years and remains intent on continuing to win trophies. If Forest can secure Glasner for next season, optimism will surge about what he might achieve at the club.
