How Fulham are making changes to academy to cope with Brexit – The Athletic

Fulham have one of the leading academies in the country but to sustain it in a post-Brexit world, the club will need to adapt. It is a process that has already begun.

Last month, the club announced a restructuring at academy level, with key personnel moved and new positions created. So far, Huw Jennings has stepped into a more strategic role as head of football development, Mike Cave has taken on Jennings former role as academy director and Colin Omogbehin has moved up from the under-23s to become a first-team development coach.

There is still more to come as this seasons coaching staff for the under-23 side is not yet finalised, with Steve Wigley, who is also head of player development, taking that team in their pre-season. The new director of scouting position is not filled yet either, with the interview process understood to be ongoing.
