Darren Fletcher will remain part of Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag's coaching staff this season.

Technical director Fletcher will remain on the first-team coaching staff, having been involved in training during United's pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia.

Fletcher officially returned to United as a first-team coach in January 2021 and was then named technical director in March but continued to participate in training.

The 38-year-old observed matches from the press box and the directors' box before he moved into the dugout with the rest of the first-team staff for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's last match in charge in the defeat at Watford in November.

United explained Fletcher "also has a wider remit as technical director, overseeing the path from Academy to the first team, plus players out on loan".
