Martin Hunter named Southampton technical director

Southampton have named Martin Hunter as new technical director.

Hunter has spent the past four years in charge of the Development Squad.

Executive director Les Reed told the club's website: "Martin is one of the most highly-qualified coaches in the English game and, after a successful time in charge of our under-21s, he will now play a big part in how coaching is delivered right from the first team down through the academy.

"He will work closely with the first-team coaching staff, but will play a wider role in ensuring that our teams play in the Southampton way at all levels."
