Highly-rated coach Max Porter has left his role at Arsenal to become Stoke City’s assistant manager.
The 38-year-old had a playing career in the lower leagues with the likes of AFC Wimbledon, Newport County and Barnet, but retired early and moved into coaching.
He joined Arsenal in 2017 and worked his way up the age ranges, starting at Under-9s and leaving as Under-21s head coach.
The Englishman now joins Stoke to work as experienced manager Mark Robins’ assistant after a 17th place finish in the Championship last season.
