Wanderers announce coaching staff

Western Sydney Wanderers Executive Chairman Lyall Gorman today officially announced three new additions to the club coaching staff for the upcoming A-League 2012/13 season.

Former Socceroo Ante Milicic has been appointed as the Assistant Coach to Tony Popovic, Ron Corry as the goalkeeper coach and Trevor Morgan the Youth League coach.

Gorman was excited by these coaching appointments and the club’s prospects for the upcoming A-League season.

“To have this calibre of coaches joining us at Wanderers FC provides a great foundation for the playing group,” said Gorman.

“Not only are these appointments some of the best football coaches this country has to offer, they all truly understand the DNA and culture of Western Sydney.

“With our playing squad starting to take shape, I am excited about our first training session together.

“These are the first of many more exciting football related announcements that will be occurring over the next month.”

In addition to the coaching appointments, Gorman also announced the appointment of well-respected football administrator John Tsatsimas as General Manager Football Operations.

“John’s experience as the former CEO of the Newcastle Jets provides this club with a huge advantage during our establishment phase,” continued Gorman.

“John will be working closely with Tony and myself in the recruitment of players and the football side of the business.

“We look forward to working closely with John as we build this club from the ground up,” concluded Gorman.
