Brighton assistant manager and former interim boss Amy Merricks is set to take charge of England Women U19s from the start of the 2023/24 season.
She’s led the Women’s Super League side on a temporary basis on three separate occasions, two of which came during the current campaign. Her most recent spell saw her take over from Jens Scheuer after just six games in charge, before the Seagulls made a permanent appointment in Melissa Phillips.
Merricks has been with Brighton since 2015, having previously worked at at Gillingham and Millwall. She rose through the ranks at the South coast club, moving from development squad head coach to assistant manager in 2016.
