Gary Lineker has selected the Northern Irish man as next sensation in the Premier League.
Speaking on Wednesday’s podcast of The Rest Is Football, Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer and Micah Richards had their picks about the next big British manager.
When asked who he saw as a young up and up- coming British manager who could make the headlines in the Premier League side, Lineker picked a former United man Kieran McKenna.
Gary Lineker about the brilliancy of Kieran McKenna
To define Kieran McKenna Linker said :
“I’m going to go with Kieran McKenna from Ipswich Town. I think he’s done a brilliant job with them and he’s young.” Before he added, “They’re flying at the top of the league.”
Where Alen Shearer added that he is “doing a really good job.”
McKenna’s Ipswich Town are too good
Kieran McKenna joined Ipswich Town in 2021 when club was the regular struggler in the English Third Division. But the last season McKenna put some extraordinary as the club promoted from the League One.
While the current season is going good for Ipswich Town. They won 6 games out of 7 games.
Currently they stand 3rd in the Championship with 18 points. And if things are going around like this, then they will pass the second division.
But the question arise, where could he go then if Ipswich will promote to Premier League ?
What is the future of Kieran McKenna
Many see Kieran McKenna remains as Ipswich Town coach as he has build project around the club.
But fans are fans, where they make theories centralized him. Perhaps the obvious choices for him would be a return to either Tottenham Hotspurs of Manchester United the future, the two clubs where he honed his skills.
Some of United fans thinking the Northern Irish will be the perfect successor of Erik Ten Hag.
The playing style of 37 years old is also simple and easily applicable to the Premier League aura.
