Charlotte's MLS expansion team is a few weeks old, and the club is wasting little time in mobilizing for its 2021 inaugural season.
On the heels of naming its first sporting director, Charlotte has picked its first technical director, with Marc Nicholls leaving his job as Seattle Sounders director of player development for the nascent club on Tuesday. The move comes a week after Charlotte tabbed Zoran Krneta as its sporting director, with the club off and running as it builds from scratch.
Krneta will be responsible for "all on-field operations, recruiting coaches and professional support staff, identifying and signing players for the MLS roster, and creating a youth development academy and related youth player initiatives," according to the club.
