Ebbsfleet United have confirmed that Danny Searle has been appointed as the club’s new permanent manager following his period as interim head coach.

With previous experience in the National League, the League of Ireland, at Premier League academy level and abroad, the UEFA Pro-licensed coach is fully up to speed with the Fleet squad and has already made great strides at the Kuflink Stadium as the team head into the final third of the league season.

Working alongside Danny will be Anwar Uddin as assistant manager, who has also featured in the Fleet dugout on an interim basis this past fortnight.

Danny and Anwar have worked closely with the playing squad for the past two weeks and the strong performances against Oldham Athletic and Chesterfield are an excellent platform to take into the remaining fixtures this season.

We welcome Danny and Anwar on board on a permanent basis and we are confident our loyal supporters will join us in striving together as one in our single-minded goal of maintaining our National League position beyond the end of this campaign, continuing this Saturday at home to Eastleigh.
