Adi Viveash leaves Coventry City
The assistant manager's been at the Sky Blues for seven years
Coventry City have announced assistant manager Adi Viveash will leave the club.
The news comes after what the club have described as a post-season review.
On their website, the club say they wish Adi the best of luck in the future.
Viveash has been with the Sky Blues for seven years - playing a key role in promotion from League Two to the Championship.
Following changes made to the internal structures, George Boateng and Rhys Carr have taken up first-team coaching roles at the club.
Boateng and Carr join the Sky Blues with immediate effect as the City squad assembles for the start of pre-season training at Ryton, joining goalkeeping coach Aled Williams as part of the Club’s first-team coaching staff.
48-year-old Boateng is a familiar face to City supporters, having played 57 games and scored 7 goals for the Club from 1998 to 1999 after a move from Feyenoord. The midfielder famously netted twice as the Sky Blues won in the league against Aston Villa at Villa Park for the first time in 63 years. He also had spells in England at Aston Villa, Middlesbrough, Hull City and Nottingham Forest. Ghanaian born, Boateng represented the Netherlands on four occasions.
Boateng has had coaching experience at Blackburn Rovers and Aston Villa, where he was Under 18s and then Under 23s coach. From May 2022, George was then appointed assistant coach of the Ghana national team.
Rhys Carr joins the Sky Blues from Wolverhampton Wanderers, where he was Individual Development Coach. He held this position alongside that of Assistant Coach at the Ireland Women’s National team.
Manager Mark Robins said:
“We are very pleased to welcome George and Rhys to Coventry City.
“They both impressed us during the extensive recruitment process for this important role and each bring key skills to the football department.
“Their experience and knowledge will greatly aid our work to maximise the performance and preparation of our team, both in advance of, and on matchdays, and we are excited to begin working with them.”
