Justin Cochrane, the head of Manchester United's academy, is a target for a number of Premier League opponents.
Justin Cochrane, Manchester United's highly regarded academy director, has moved to Brentford.
After being courted by a number of Premier League clubs for a first-team spot, the 40-year-old has joined the Bees.
In his job as head of player development and coaching, Justin Cochrane has handled the teams from U17 to U23 level since joining United last summer.
Last month, in Justin Cochrane's first season as manager, the Red Devils won the FA Youth Cup for the first time since 2011.
Justin Cochrane's efforts have been noticed by a number of Premier League teams.
Brentford, on the other hand, has persuaded Justin Cochrane to relocate to West London.
After coaching Tottenham Hotspur and England's young teams, Justin Cochrane joined United's development program last summer.
He's been acknowledged for his influence on United's players and coaches.
After Neil Wood departed his post as U23s coach to become first-team manager at Salford City, Cochrane becomes the third member of the academy to quit in recent weeks.
Meanwhile, Neil Ryan, who was an assistant with the U23s, has left to join the FA. Travis Binnion will become the head of player development and coaching while continuing to coach the U18s.
Cochrane was a player for both QPR and Millwall, and was capped by Antigua and Barbuda at the international level.
After retiring, Cochrane coached Spurs from U12 through U23 level before joining the England coaching staff.
During his time in North London, he was responsible for the development of players like as Japhet Tanganga, Oliver Skipp, Dane Scarlett, Noni Madueke, and Marcus Edwards.
Cochrane's experience working in academy settings is appealing to a variety of teams, who want to benefit from his knowledge of working with children.
