According to a report from The Athletic, Fletcher will replace Adam Lawrence as the Premier League giant’s Under-18 head coach this summer.

Lawrence decided to step down after two years with the club as the powers that be continue to restructure the youth set up.

It’s understood that Fletcher sees this as a step in the right direction towards his ultimate desire of becoming a manager.
