Steve McClaren leaves Man Utd to be appointed new Jamaica head coach on two-year deal

Steve McClaren has left his role as the manager of Manchester United’s Under-23 team to take up the position of head coach of the Jamaica national team.

The 61-year-old has signed a two-year deal with the Reggae Boyz, as they look to rebuild and improve their fortunes in international football.

McClaren, who has previously managed Derby County, Nottingham Forest, and the England national team, will take charge of Jamaica for the first time in a friendly match against Costa Rica in September.

‘I am thrilled to be appointed as the head coach of Jamaica,’ McClaren said in a statement.

‘I am looking forward to working with the players and staff to help the team achieve success and make the fans proud.’

Jamaica Football Federation president, Michael Ricketts, added: ‘We are delighted to have secured the services of a highly experienced and respected coach like Steve McClaren.’

‘He has a wealth of knowledge and experience, and we believe he will be able to help us improve our performance and achieve our goals.’

McClaren’s appointment comes after a disappointing World Cup qualifying campaign for Jamaica, which saw them finish fifth in their group and miss out on a spot in the final round of qualifying.

However, McClaren is confident that he can help the team improve their fortunes and make a positive impact on the international stage.

‘I am excited to get started and work with the players and staff to help the team achieve success,’ McClaren said.

‘I believe that with hard work and dedication, we can achieve great things and make the fans proud.’

McClaren’s first task will be to prepare Jamaica for their friendly match against Costa Rica in September, which will be followed by a series of international friendlies and World Cup qualifying matches.

He will be tasked with rebuilding the team and improving their performance, and will have to work closely with the players and staff to achieve his goals.
