As a manager

In 2001, Forte was a player-coach at FC Red Star Zürich. In 2006, he moved to FC Wil 1900. After coaching FC Wil 1900 for two years, he signed for FC St. Gallen. He was fired on 1 March 2011. One year later, on 16 April 2012, he signed as the new manager of Grasshopper Club Zürich. From July 2013 until August 2015 he was the head coach of BSC Young Boys. On 13 May 2016 he signed as the head coach of FC Zürich.[4]

After one season with Yverdon, he was appointed by Arminia Bielefeld, on 4 June 2022.[6] On 17 August 2022, Forte was sacked after four losses in the new season.[7]

On 25 April 2023, he returned to the Swiss Challenge League taking over Neuchâtel Xamax, who were sitting in last place.[8]
