The current Manchester United first team coach will discuss his experiences in football

A new season is here, and with it the return of our popular coaching workshop series FC Live.

We’re delighted to be joined for the first session of 2021/22 by current Manchester United first-team coach Martyn Pert.

The online session will focus on ‘Developing High Performance Environments’, and draw on Martyn’s vast experience in football – from his time in grassroots football in his native Norfolk through to his current role, which sees him work with the likes of Paul Pogba, Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes on a daily basis.

The workshop will take place online on Thursday 9th September (8pm-9pm, via Zoom), and is completely free. Sign-up now.

Multi-lingual Pert (he can speak Portuguese) joined the Red Devils in 2019, and has been an integral part of Ole-Gunnar Solskjaer’s coaching team ever since.
