The Club can confirm that Kevin Betsy will be leaving the Academy to join The FA as head coach of the England Men’s Under-15s team.
Kevin has been working at the Club for the last seven years, and most recently held the position of Under-15/16 Head Coach.
He enjoyed plenty of success during his time on the coaching staff, leading the Under-16s to consecutive Premier League International Cup victories, as well as overseeing an Under-17 side to Padercup glory.
In December 2015, Betsy was named Youth Development Phase Coach of the Year at the FA Coaching Awards.
Speaking to The FA, he said: “Representing England as a national coach at any level is the absolute pinnacle of the profession and I am absolutely delighted to be joining The FA.
“I’ve been fortunate enough to have enjoyed seven fantastic years working within a truly brilliant football academy at Fulham with some outstanding people and I leave with a heavy heart, but this opportunity is something I couldn’t turn down. I can’t wait to get started in what is a wonderful opportunity for me.”
Everyone at Fulham would like to wish Kevin the best of luck in his new role.
