Ipswich manager McKenna to step down after Premier League promotion

Kieran McKenna is leaving Ipswich Town after leading the club back to the Premier League. The 40-year-old announced his departure following five intense seasons at the club.

Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna is stepping down after guiding the Tractor Boys to promotion to the Premier League. He took the club from League One to the top flight and secured another promotion last season following a brief relegation to the Championship. McKenna has been linked with other roles, including at Fulham, but the club confirmed he is stepping away from football. In a statement, he expressed gratitude and pride for his time at the historic club while noting the decision came after reflection. McKenna previously worked as a youth coach at Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United before taking a first-team role at United. He said he now plans to take a break from management to spend time with his family.
