Former Leicester City, Brighton & Hove Albion, Coventry City and Fulham boss Micky Adams has found a new job in non-league football -as the manager of ninth-tier club Harborough Town's U18s side.

The 55-year-old, who was born in Sheffield, will run the youth team for the Leicestershire-based United Counties League Premier Division club.

The ex-Southampton full-back's most recent Football League role ended in April 2015, when he parted company with Tranmere Rovers by mutual consent with the club then at the bottom of League Two.

A statement on the Market Harborough club's website said Adams "will be an inspiration to both the players and the club's coaches."

The statement reads: The club are delighted to announce that Micky Adams has joined the Bees. After a very successful career in football both as a player and as a manager, Micky has agreed to support Harborough Town develop its U18s youth players.

"As well as a successful playing career Micky managed Fulham, Brighton & Hove Albion, Leicester City, Coventry City, and Port Vale. He will be an inspiration to both the players and the clubs’ coaches.
"In preparation to run the U18s mid week youth team for the coming season, Micky will be running three trials at Harborough Town. The trials are open to 15-17 years old."
