First Team Coach Georgson leaves Man Utd after a year

Now United have decided there is “less space” for Georgson on Amorim’s coaching staff and he has departed.

“It has been a fantastic experience serving as first team coach at Manchester United, and I will always be proud of my association with such a great football club,” Georgson said. 

“This period of my career has now come to an end as I leave to find a new challenge elsewhere. While excited about the opportunities ahead, I am sad to be leaving so many great colleagues and friends at Carrington, who make Manchester United truly special.

“Even during such a tough season, the professionalism and dedication of the players and staff never wavered, and I know there will be better times ahead. I want to thank Jason, Ruben and Erik for the opportunities they gave me, and wish everyone at the club the best of luck for the future.”

Technical Director Jason Wilcox, who had also worked with Georgson at Southampton, added: “Andreas has been a valued member of our men’s first team coaching set-up over the past year, and we are grateful for his significant contribution. He leaves with our thanks and best wishes for the next stage of his career.”

Georgson has an unparalleled range of experience. He was Set Piece Coach at Brentford, Arsenal and Southampton; Coach, Analyst, Scouting Co-Ordinator and Technical Director at Malmo; and Manager of Lillestrom.
