Kenny Brown is proud to be West Ham caretaker academy manager.
The former Irons defender was confirmed to the role at Chadwell Heath in early November after former academy manager Ricky Martin departed the Club.
In his role, Brown will take responsibility for the daily tasks and duties concerning the Academy of Football, and the 55-year-old is relishing the position and everything that comes with it.
“It’s very special for me,” Brown told West Ham TV. “I am very proud and honoured to be assigned in this role, and I have thoroughly enjoyed it so far.
“It’s been very busy so far. A big priority was to meet the heads of departments. It is important for me to know how I can support them, and how I can push the Academy in the right direction.
“There are so many different responsibilities, and that’s something I am really excited about. There are several different departments, including coaching, medical, player performance, recruitment, education and player care, so my first priority is to have an overview of each of these.”
