Chris Coleman has been appointed as Fulham manager on a permanent basis, the Premiership club said on Thursday. The 32-year-old former central defender, who is the premier league's youngest manager, has been in temporary charge of the team since the departure of Frenchman Jean Tigana on April 17.
Under Coleman Fulham won three of their last five games to
stave off the threat of relegation from the premier league.
The Welsh international's playing career was ended
prematurely after he suffered serious leg injuries in a car
crash in January 2001.
