Former Toon Coach Joins Manchester United

Posted on July 1, 2013 by Harry Savill (Editor) in Staff // 1 Comment

Former Newcastle United coach, Steve Round, has today agreed a deal to become Manchester United's new assistant manager, linking up with former boss David Moyes.

Round, having joined Middlesbrough in 2001, was a first team coach on Teeside until 2007, when he became the first coaching appointment of new manager, Sam Allardyce.

However, after just one season at Newcastle, he left to join Everton, becoming the Assistant manager to David Moyes in lieu of Alan Irvine, who had left to become manager of Preston North End.

Though Steve’s stint on Tyneside was short-lived, it’s always great to see former staff members succeeding in their line of work and we wish the best of luck to him at Manchester United.
