Fortune planning for coaching career at Man Utd

Former Manchester United midfielder Quinton Fortune is planning for a coaching career.

Fortune still trains with United and works with the club's youth teams.

"People ask me why I still train," said the former midfielder to manutd.com. "I don't know what to do if I don't go training. I'd go crazy!

"I enjoy working for the club as well but it's great to go to Carrington and see the lads and work with Warren Joyce when he needs me.

"I do want to do coaching this season. I'm taking my badges and I can do that at Carrington and work in the evening to do my hours, get my assessment and keep going."

Clearly, Fortune is in a prime position to cut his teeth coaching alongside some of the best in the business.

"Exactly," he reasons. "There's no better place to learn. Every day, I watch training and learn from Rene [Meulensteen] and Mike [Phelan] and so on. I love working with the younger players as well."
