New Goalkeeper Coach Is Just Fab
The Clarets have added to their depth of goalkeeping resources with the appointment of Fabian Otte to the coaching staff.
Otte – a 29-year-old German – arrives at Turf Moor as transition coach, working in the Academy and assisting first-team goalkeeping coach Billy Mercer.
“He will be a link between the Development Squad and the first team,” said Mercer, who has spent more than a decade working with and developing a string of top-class keepers at Burnley.
“He’s enthusiastic, wants to do well and with his qualifications and background getting him is a real coup for us.”
Otte replaces Craig Mawson, who ended his lengthy association with the Clarets to join Manchester United last season.
