Former Philadelphia Union forward Conor Casey can officially be added to the list of former Union players with head coaching jobs in the professional ranks.
Casey was named the head coach of USL Championship club Charleston Battery on Monday. He served as an interim head coach of the Colorado Rapids in 2019.
“After an extensive process to identify the ideal candidate who will transform our club into a modern, progressive, perennial contender, Conor distinguished himself from a deep pool of candidates,” Battery owner and executive chairman Rob Salvatore stated in a news release.
