Deila set for GMS reunion with NYC move
Ronny Deila is set for a shock move to take charge of New York City FC.
The former Celtic manager recently signed a new deal, on reduced wages, to continue at Oslo club Valerenga, where he moved after quitting the Hoops in 2016.
But he’s the No. 1 choice now to take charge of MLS new boys, New York City FC, after they missed out on former Rangers star Giovanni van Bronckhorst, who opted instead to move to Chinese club, Guangzhou R&F.
Deila has had strong links with the club’s owners, City Football Group, since he led Stromsgodset to the Norwegian title when they were also an affiliate club of Manchester City.
If he completes the move, Deila would see a familiar face at the Big Apple club – he signed winger Gary Mackay-Steven for Celtic from Dundee United five years ago.
Deila won two league titles and the League Cup during his time in Glasgow.
One-time interim Clyde boss, Tony McNally, has taken over as the manager of Swedish Division 2 Norrland side, Ytterhogdal IK.
He took the reins after English manager, Adrian Costello, resigned to return to the UK.
McNally, who was a coach at Dumbarton and Annan, was the manager of the Bully Wee’s Under-20 side.
But in the autumn of 2017, he was asked to step up and take charge of the top team following the sacking of Jim Chapman.
After guiding Clyde to two draws, McNally applied for the manager’s position, but lost out to Danny Lennon.
He left the Cumbernauld club shortly afterwards.
In 2018, McNally moved to Ytterhogdal as their assistant manager, and helped them reach the promotion play-offs before they lost out in the Final.
McNally said: “This is a great opportunity and one that I am determined to take.”
Clyde have completed the signing of former Rangers winger Gregg Wylde until the end of the season.
The 28-year-old had previously been with Livingston, but left in September, having made only three appearances.
