McClaren appointed Newcastle United head coach
Updated | By Nondumiso Zakwe
Newcastle have confirmed former England boss Steve McClaren as their new head coach on a three-year deal.
McClaren, 54, was sacked by Derby on May 25 having overseen the Rams sliding from the top of the Championship to an eighth-place finish with just two wins in their last 13 games of the season.
But the Magpies, who only escaped relegation to the second tier courtesy of a final-day victory over West Ham, have put their faith in McClaren following the decision to part ways with caretaker-manager John Carver and his assistant Steve Stone.
