Under-21s head coach Travis Binnion and academy coach Alan Wright, a recent recruit from Manchester City , will also join Fletcher's first-team staff. Craig Mawson is the sole survivor from the first-team coaching staff after Amorim's exit. The 46-year-old goalkeeping coach has been with United for six years, having transferred from Wednesday's rivals Burnley in 2019. Evans shared the pitch with Fletcher, who has been promoted from his role as Under-18s head coach and will have an opportunity to prove his worth this week. Fletcher previously served as a first-team coach under Erik ten Hag and held the position of technical director at United.
