Nottingham Forest has taken a significant step toward financial stability after Greek owner Evangelos Marinakis wrote off £82 million in debt. According to The Athletic, Marinakis converted the debt into equity, ensuring the club remains free from immediate financial obligations.

This is not the first time Marinakis has personally intervened to stabilize Forest’s finances. Over recent years, he has repeatedly converted loans into equity, but the latest £82 million conversion marks his largest financial contribution to date. The move ensures that Forest stays within the Premier League's debt limits and avoids potential penalties, such as a points deduction, which had been looming over the club.

Previously, Marinakis executed similar debt-to-equity conversions for amounts of £41 million, £12 million, £20 million, and £11 million. Even in the Premier League, renowned for its vast financial resources, such substantial personal investments stand out.

Forest fans can now breathe a sigh of relief as their club not only avoids punitive measures but also secures a more sustainable financial future under Marinakis’s stewardship.
