Burnley Football Club is delighted to welcome Tony Philliskirk as the new head coach of the U18s.
The former Clarets striker, who has spent the past 20 years working as a coach at Oldham Athletic, takes over the role recently vacated by Danny Cadamarteri.
And Philliskirk admitted he was delighted and privileged to be back at Turf Moor, where he made 45 appearances in the mid-1990s.
The 53-year-old, pictured being welcomed by Head of Academy Jon Pepper, said: “As a former player here, I have an affinity to the club and from bringing youth teams here over the years I’ve seen the club and its facilities develop.
