Burnley Appoints Michael Jackson as Interim Coach After Parker Exit

Burnley have named Michael Jackson as interim manager for the final four matches of the Premier League season. This follows Scott Parker’s departure by mutual consent after relegation was confirmed. Jackson steps up from Parker’s coaching staff to ensure continuity and stability in a crucial transition period. The club decided against rushing a full-time appointment and opted for a familiar face. His immediate task is to steady the dressing room, guide the squad through the psychological impact of relegation, and help identify players to build around in the Championship. An impressive run could turn this interim spell into a permanent role.
