Phelan named Man United assistant

Man United have appointed Mike Phelan as assistant manager, replacing Carlos Queiroz who left to become Portugal coach.

Phelan, a former United player who has worked his way up through the ranks of the backroom staff, has been working as a first team coach since 2001 when Steve McClaren left for Middlesbrough.

Dutchman Rene Meulensteen has also been promoted from technical skills development officer to take on Phelan's former role.
