Having managed more than 330 Premier League matches in his career to date, Dyche has built teams defined by defensive organisation, resilience, and strength from set pieces qualities that align closely with the current squad's attributes and the club's footballing identity. As a former Forest youth player who lives locally, Dyche also has a deep understanding of the values and pride of Forest and its supporters."

Dyche has been out of work since being sacked in January by Everton, where he was in charge for two years, and will be in the dugout for the visit of Porto in the Europa League on Thursday."
