Some assistant managerial news as well! Mike Phelan has signed a three-year contract to continue as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s assistant at Manchester United. This is what Solskjaer said:
I’ve been a player under him and his knowledge, his experience, his demeanour … the players really respect him, they know what he can do, and he’s worked with the best. For me, I’m a young manager and Mick’s got more experience in a few areas than I have.
We are delighted to announce the appointment of @Mike_Phelan_1 as our new assistant manager. #MUFC
And some managerial news: Walsall have announced the appointment of Darrell Clarke as their new manager. The 41-year-old, who left Bristol Rovers in December, has promised to “bring the good times back”:
I am excited by the challenge that lies ahead. This is a great club and I can’t wait to get my teeth into the task at hand. The club have had a couple of disappointing seasons and we now find ourselves in League Two. I want to give these brilliant fans something to shout about, put a smile on their faces and give them a team that will give their all for the club and the badge. I like my teams to be on the front foot and play attractive, attacking football with the ability to adapt to different scenarios. I know all about the division we are in, I’ve had success at League Two level before and I want to bring the good times back.
✍️ Walsall Football Club are delighted to announce that Darrell Clarke has agreed to become the #Saddlers‘ new First Team Manager!
