The club's owner, Evangelos Marinakis, chose Dyche for the position. This decision came after Roberto Mancini declined the opportunity to take the job, and the club decided not to pursue Marco Silva from Fulham due to the high cost of £13m.
Dyche lives in Nottingham and is expected to bring in familiar faces to his coaching staff. Former Forest players Ian Woan and Steve Stone may join his team at the City Ground.
