Jason Euell believes working alongside and learning from Nigel Pearson provides him with the perfect platform to follow in his footsteps on his journey to become a manager.
The duo were reunited two weeks ago with the club appointing Euell to become the club's first-team coach, 14 years after the former striker played under Pearson during his brief spell as manager of Southampton.
Euell joined City on the back of nine years as a coach at Charlton, first working with the academy and U23s before eventually making the step up to first-team coach under Nigel Adkins. He has previously spoken of his frustration at the lack of opportunities for progression during his time with the Addicks having had to wait eight years before his promotion to senior football.
