Head of Scouting
Bristol City Football Club
July 2017 – Present (1 year 2 months)Bristol, United Kingdom

International Scout

Bristol City Football Club
October 2015  June 2017 (1 year 9 months)Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom
International Scout, mainly concentrating on Spain

 

 

Interesting that he was the international scout focusing on Spain for 21 months. did we end up signing anyone from Spain in this time frame? How do you go from International scout,  your club doesn't buy anyone from the area you are concentrating on, to Head of Scouting??

Looking at Day and then a bit further in.

Seemed we had Matthieu Louis Jean as International scout- or an International Scout-from July 2015-June 2016.

Wonder if the club just merged/amalgamated the roles and gave Mervyn Day the ultimate responsibility.

Not uncommon in business- not terribly advisable in football though IMO.

MLJ I think was the one who identified Kodjia btw.

MLJ was also used to help Kodjia settle in I believe.

That'd make sense- the French English football Connection.

Have we replaced MLJ properly yet though? Or does Day have his responsibilities on  top of general scouting? Seems an interesting structure...

@hoxton casual

LinkedIn (unless they aren't really on LinkedIn) suggests our scouting ops in a more senior sense consists of the following:

  • Mervyn Day
  • Lil Fuccillo

Could also argue that Sam Stanton, our current Head of Analysis crosses over with this a bit in some duties?
