"Swansea City under-18s coach Ricky King is set to join Southampton as head of coaching.

King is set to take over his new role at the beginning of October, and makes the move on the back of several years of experience in coaching, methodology and coach education roles at New York Red Bulls, Vancouver Whitecaps, as well as the Swans.

He will be joined at the Saints by Jack Chapman, who is set to take on the role of Head of Academy Recruitment, after spending the last five years in SA1.

The pair have been recruited by Andy Goldie, who was once part of the set-up at Landore himself before leaving for Hampshire earlier this summer."

Seems they're determined to turn Southampton into a mid table championship club. If only they bought Wood they'd get there much quicker.What they really need is to tempt Levien, Coleman and Watson.
