Parker takes one ex-member of the Cherries backroom crew with him as he heads to Burnley.

Although there won’t be a significant change to his backroom personnel at Burnley, Scott Parker says he will bring on a former Cherries employee. Parker took up the role of Burnley manager last week, marking his first managing position after a brief stint in Belgium with Club Brugge. Parker hasn’t had a part in an English production since departing Cherries in August 2022. The 43-year-old, who has already led Fulham and Cherries into the Premier League, will be aiming for a third promotion from the Championship.

He has once again enlisted Jonathan Hill’s assistance to accomplish this. At Burnley, they will collaborate with Mike Jackson, Henrik Jensen, and Eliot Tybebo, the set-piece coach. Craig Bellamy, the current assistant, seemed destined to take over as Wales’ manager. Parker Analyst considers Burnley’s history of assisting managers to be “a big factor.” When Parker was hired as Cherries’ supervisor in 2021, he brought five employees with him, including Hill. Coaches Rob Burch and Matt Wells have moved to Tottenham Hotspur, however physical performance staff members Alastair Harris and Charlie Moore are still with Cherries.

Upon being asked how his backroom staff would approach Burnley, Parker replied, “I go back to the people that work here at the football team.” “I’ve arrived to collaborate with this staff. Jonathan Hill, a member of my staff who has worked with me at Spurs under-18s, Fulham, and Bournemouth, is with me. “The others are here to collaborate with, so let’s try to succeed.” On August 12, Burnley will play their road opener against fellow demoted team Luton Town in the Championship.
