EPL: McKenna snubs Man Utd, Chelsea

Ipswich Town manager, Kieran McKenna, is set to snub any move away to Manchester United or Chelsea this summer.

According to Sky Sports, McKenna will stay at Portman Road and sign a new contract.

The 38-year-old coach has guided Ipswich to back-to-back EFL promotions and a first Premier League campaign at Portman Road for 22 years.

However, following the managerial vacancies at Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge, there were question marks about his future.

McKenna also emerged as a candidate for the vacant Brighton job following Roberto De Zerbi’s departure.

Ipswich Town majority shareholder, Ed Schwartz, flew into the UK from the United States at the end of last week for talks with the club’s chief executive officer Mark Ashton and McKenna.

It is understood discussions were over a proposed new deal.
