Kieran McKenna expected to stay as Ipswich Town manager
Kieran McKenna is expected to sign a new deal to remain as Ipswich Town manager after guiding the club to the Premier League, reports BBC Radio Suffolk.
The 38-year-old had been on Chelsea’s shortlist of names to replace Mauricio Pochettino, and was also linked with the vacancy at Brighton.
It was understood last week that McKenna would reject a new contract at Portman Road.
But after he dropped out of the race for the job at Stamford Bridge on Sunday he is set to remain with the club he guided to the top flight with back-to-back promotions.
He was voted the League Managers Association’s manager of the year for his efforts in taking Ipswich back to the Premier League after a 22-year absence.
