Trevor Morgan has expressed his excitement of being appointed the new head coach of the Philippines Football League (PFL) side United City.

ā€œI cannot wait to get onto the training field with the players and look forward to working with a group of high-quality players and staff.

ā€œI have been given a wonderful opportunity to help take an already very successful team to the next level, and I will give everything I have to help improve our team and to further establish Philippine Football as a force to be reckoned with in Asia,ā€ said the well-travelled Trevor.

After having served as assistants at Birmingham and also Exeter in the United Kingdom, Trevor took full charge at Sorrento FC in Western Australia.

Then it was a switch between Sengkang in Singapore and then Sarawak in Malaysia before he spent a considerable amount of time in India – from East Bengal to Kerala and then Dempo to Pune.

The 63-year-old Trevor also served as an assistant coach for Hull City FC during the 2008-2009 season, making him the first Australian coach to work in the English Premier League (EPL).

ā€œHis exposure to various leagues has prepared him very well for his new role at United City FC,ā€ said UCFC co-founder Eric Gottschalk.

ā€œWe are excited and proud to have him on board, especially since the season is about to start.ā€
