Nottingham Forest secured a place in European competition after nearly three decades.

On the night of May 25th, Nottingham Forest lost to Chelsea 0-1, thus finishing the Premier League season in 7th place.

Nottingham has qualified for European competition.

Despite having home advantage, Nottingham couldn't spring a surprise against Chelsea, who had a deeper squad. Levi Colwill's solitary goal secured a narrow victory for "The Blues" at City Ground, moving them up to fourth place in the Premier League table and earning them a Champions League spot.

Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest remained in 7th place, securing a spot in the Conference League for the following season. This marks their first appearance in European competition since 1996. Twenty-nine years ago, Nottingham Forest reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup (the predecessor of the Europa League) and lost to Bayern Munich.

Despite missing out on a Champions League spot, Nottingham Forest can still hold their heads high. Under the guidance of manager Nuno Santo, the City Ground team has transformed from a relegation battle into a formidable opponent for big clubs. This season, Nottingham Forest caused a sensation by defeating Liverpool at Anfield, winning both matches against Manchester United, and beating Manchester City, Tottenham, and others.

During the upcoming summer transfer window, Nottingham Forest's management will recruit more quality new players to help them compete for European cup qualification and go deep in the Conference League in the 2025/26 season.
