NYCFC has found its next head coach.
After parting ways with Domenec Torrent in November, the club announced in a press release Monday that former Celtic FC manager Ronny Deila has been appointed as its new man in charge. The Norwegian joins the MLS club from Valerenga, where he had managed in his home country since 2017, on a three-year contract pending the approval of a US work permit.
“When the opportunity came up to join New York City FC as their new Head Coach, it was a dream come true for me to manage an amazing Club in a great city,” Deila told the team’s official website.
