The former Sheffield United academy manager, Travis Binnion, has a new job at Manchester United, according to Training Ground Guru.

Binnion, who left Sheffield United as part of a Shirecliffe reshuffle earlier this year, will reportedly take over as lead coach of Manchester United’s Under-14 to 16 teams.

The ex-Blades defender spent more than a decade on the club’s coaching staff and worked under the Red Devils academy head Nick Cox in the Steel City.

Binnion had a hand in the development of Premier League players Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Everton), Aaron Ramsdale and David Brooks (both Bournemouth), as well as Manchester United’s recent £80 million recruit, Harry Maguire.

The 33-year-old was succeeded at Sheffield United by another former Blade, Jack Lester.
