Newcastle confirms Kinnear's return

NEWCASTLE United has appointed Joe Kinnear as the English Premier League club's new director of football on a three-year contract.

The 66-year-old Irishman left Newcastle in 2009 after a heart attack. He had been the club's interim manager following the departure of Kevin Keegan. He is coming back to work alongside current manager Alan Pardew and has promised not to interfere with team selections. Newcastle managing director Derek Llambias welcomed Kinnear's return, saying his "experience will be of great benefit to the club in achieving our objectives over the coming seasons". Newcastle finished 16th last season.
