Wanted - Ian Hendon has been offered the role of first team coach at Southend United, Echosport understands
IAN Hendon has been offered the role of first team coach at Southend United, Echosport understands.
The 49-year-old made more than 700 appearances as a player and now also has plenty of experience behind him in the dug-out.
Hendon has had more than 100 games as a manager after spells in charge of both Barnet and Leyton Orient and spent four years as first team coach at West Ham United.
He has also bossed Dover in non-league and was assistant manager at Ebbsfleet United before taking charge of Europa Point in Gilbraltar.
However, Hendon – who holds a UEFA pro licence - has now been offered the chance to come to Roots Hall as part of Phil Brown’s backroom team.
