🚨 Big news from Newport County! 🚨 The League Two club has made a surprise announcement by appointing Christian Fuchs, a Premier League winner with Leicester City, as their new manager! 🎉


Fuchs, who played a central role in Leicester’s legendary 2016 Premier League triumph, has signed a long-term deal with Newport County. Known for his ambitious nature, he’s set his sights on lifting the club’s standing, despite their current challenging position. Newport is currently at the bottom of the league, but optimism is in the air as Fuchs looks to turn the tide. ⚽️
Newport’s Chairman, Huw Jenkins, is thrilled about the new appointment, saying, “Christian is the man to lead us forward. We share a strong belief in Newport’s potential.” 🌟 Fuchs, who has managerial aspirations of his own, appears just as eager to rejuvenate the team’s fortunes.

Fuchs will face his first test as Newport boss this weekend against Oldham Athletic. Interestingly, he was spotted scouting a recent Newport match, fueling speculations of this new venture. 🤔
Before stepping into the managerial world, Fuchs enjoyed a robust playing career in Germany, then at Leicester, where he also helped secure an FA Cup win. After playing for Charlotte FC in the MLS, he moved on to coaching in the USA.
Leicester City’s faithful will remember Fuchs fondly for his 152 appearances and pivotal contributions. As Newport takes this exciting step forward, fans will be watching closely to see how the former Austrian international works his magic at Rodney Parade. 🧙‍♂️
Keep an eye out for Newport’s clash at Boundary Park this weekend! 👀💪
