Stephen Kenny today announced the latest addition to his coaching staff.

John Eustace. Image: PA John Eustace. Image: PA THE ROTATING CAST that is Stephen Kenny’s coaching staff today recruited its latest member, with QPR assistant manager John Eustace stepping into the void left by the departing Anthony Barry.

Eustace played almost 400 times in his playing career before a knee injury forced his retirement at Derby County in 2015. He was appointed manager at Kidderminster a year later, whom he twice led to the Conference play-offs before being whisked to QPR as Steve McClaren’s assistant. McClaren’s sacking in 2019 did not mean Eustace’s exit: instead he was retained as caretaker manager.

Barry will be among fewer recognisable faces than expected when Belgium come to town, with Roberto Martinez limiting himself solely to players with 50 caps or fewer. Youri Tielemns, Divock Origi, Thorgan Hazard, Simon Mignolet and Christian Benteke are among the headline names included without the likes of Courtois, Eden Hazard, Lukaku or De Bruyne.DIFFERENTLY Get closer to the stories that matter with exclusive analysis, insight and debate in The42 Membership.
