Former Manchester United assistant Kieran McKenna has raided his old club in order to get a new head of recruitment for Ipswich Town.
McKenna, 35, was appointed Ipswich manager back in December and has already managed to revive their play-off dreams with a steady run of results since taking over. While the aim for this season remains a promotion push, McKenna is keen to look at the long-term project he is overseeing and has gone back to United to lure Sam Williams to Portland Road.
Williams had worked for United since November 2017, most recently as a first-team recruitment analyst and an academy scout, where he worked alongside McKenna and his assistant, Martyn Pert.
