Former Sunderland boss Simon Grayson has been appointed the new head coach of Indian side Bengaluru on a two-year deal. The 52-year-old has previous experience with Leeds United, Huddersfield Town and Sunderland before most recently enjoying a short spell with Fleetwood Town.
The former Black Cats manager has been out of work since his sacking with Fleetwood Town back in November 2021, after taking over following Joey Barton's departure. The former Whites boss only lasted 10 months however with the League One side.
Lasting just four months in the job at the Stadium of Light, Grayson boasts one of the worst managerial records winning just three of his 18 games in charge. Grayson’s arrival in the north east was met with anticipation following relegation from the Premier League, but did boast vast experience of handling a big club having previously been in charge at Leeds United.
