The Manchester United coaching staff has undergone a massive amount of changes over the last 12 months as The Re Devils try to bounce back from their current slump.
Last summer saw the United hierarchy replace Erik ten Hag’s coaching staff with new staff to support the Dutchman in getting the best from his squad.
However, only a matter of months later, when ten Hag was sacked in October 2024, Ruben Amorim insisted on bringing his coaching staff from Sporting CP to replace the current Old Trafford set up.

They’ve not been the only changes for United however, with the academy coaches also having a bit of a mix up.
It was recently announced that Darren Fletcher is taking over the Under-18s side from Adam Lawrence having departed at the end of the season.
Fletcher was recommended by Sir Alex Ferguson to take a more leading role throughout the United academy, with the former United star wanting to progress through a career in management.
Another highly-rated academy coach, Simon Wiles, joined last September to lead the Under-14s side having left Salford City as their first-team manager for two and a half years.
Now, The Athletic have reported that Liverpool are in talks with Wiles to see him leave United and coach their Under-18s side.

It’s understood that Wiles is favourite to succeed Marc Bridge-Wilkinson as the youth side’s head coach for next season.
If he does take the job, he’ll be leading the young Liverpool side against Fletcher in both of their debut season as coaches for the Under-18s Premier League.
Liverpool are looking to Wiles to work alongside long-serving Liverpool academy coach Anthony Ryan who has been promoted from the Under-15s side to be Wiles’ assistant coach.
