Join Forest Fan TV as we tackle a pressing issue threatening Nottingham Forest’s Champions League dreams next season! Sitting third in the Premier League, Forest are in pole position to qualify for Europe’s elite competition, but a major hurdle looms: the UEFA dual ownership rule.

Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis also owns Olympiacos, currently top of the Greek Super League and on course to secure their own Champions League spot. Under current UEFA regulations, if both clubs qualify, only the higher-ranked team in their domestic league gets priority—meaning Olympiacos would take the Champions League spot, and Forest could be relegated to the Europa League.

But is there a way around this? In this video, we explore potential resolutions that could allow both clubs to compete in the Champions League, diving into UEFA’s multi-club ownership policies and how they’ve been navigated before. We’ll compare Forest’s situation to similar cases, like Manchester United and Nice under INEOS, and assess whether Marinakis can restructure his ownership to keep Forest’s European ambitions alive.

Watch now, hit subscribe, and let us know your thoughts in the comments—can Forest defy the odds and secure their Champions League destiny?
