Lee Congerton is a former Welsh football player who is currently the Head of Recruitment for Scottish Premiership club Celtic. Playing careerCongerton is the son of Rhyl player Dave Congerton. While being educated at Rhyl High School he played youth international football for Wales. He signed a semi-professional contract with Rhyl, before a professional trial at Wrexham where he met Brian Flynn.[1] However, realising that he enjoyed coaching more than playing, Congerton signed a semi-professional contract with Colwyn Bay, allowing him to study for a degree. He then spent a spell at Weymouth, before signing a professional contract at Crewe Alexandra.[1] CoachingHis career at Crewe was blighted by injuries. It was then that Flynn, by then manager of Wrexham, offered Congerton a coaching position as Youth System Director. After Denis Smith took over as Wrexham manager Congerton joined the coaching team at Liverpool in 2002,[1] before leaving the club in 2005 for Chelsea. At Chelsea, he was initially appointed youth team coach by Jose Mourinho. However, after the appointment of Frank Arnesen as Sporting Director, Congerton was appointed chief scout, alongside Brendan Rodgers as reserve-team coach, and academy manager Neil Bath.[4] The team's purpose was to scout and then coach young players into the first team, which included: Ryan Bertrand; Daniel Sturridge; Gael Kakuta; Jeffrey Bruma; Scott Sinclair and Fabio Borini. The team worked through various Chelsea first team managers, including the appointment of Andre Villas Boas.[4] After the sacking of Villas Boas, the entire sporting and youth team were dismissed.[2] After Arnesen was appointed Sporting Director of Hamburg in 2011, Congerton was appointed Technical Director,[3] working alongside head coach, Thorsten Fink.[4] In October 2012, West Bromwich Albion approached Hamburg to request to appoint Congerton to replace their former Technical Director Dan Ashworth; this was immediately turned down by Hamburger SV.[5] On 12 March 2014, Sunderland appointed Congerton as their Sporting Director.[6] On 15 March 2017, Celtic appointed Congerton as their Head of Recruitment.[7] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.dailypost.co.uk/sport-news/wrexham-fc/2012/07/07/i-owe-my-success-to-wrexham-fc-says-sv-hamburg-technical-director-lee-congerton-55578-31341907/|title=I owe my success to Wrexham FC|author=Gareth Bicknell|publisher=Daily Post Wales|date=7 July 2012|accessdate=14 December 2012}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Congerton, Lee}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1366608/Lee-Congerton-way-Chelsea-scout-follow-Frank-Arnesen-Hamburg.html|title=Lee Congerton on the way out of Chelsea with scout to follow Frank Arnesen to Hamburg|author=Matt Barlow|publisher=Daily Mail|date=16 March 2011|accessdate=14 December 2012}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2012/may/21/lee-congerton-interview|title=Lee Congerton: 'I would love to see this role grow in England'|author=Stuart James|publisher=The Guardian|date=21 May 2012|accessdate=14 December 2012}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.dailypost.co.uk/sport-news/liverpool-fc/2012/07/07/lee-congerton-the-rhyl-man-who-s-worked-with-rodgers-mourinho-and-avb-55578-31341909/|title=Lee Congerton – the Rhyl man who's worked with Rodgers, Mourinho and AVB|author=Gareth Bicknell|publisher=Daily Post Wales|date=7 July 2012|accessdate=14 December 2012|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://archive.is/20130420022354/http://www.dailypost.co.uk/sport-news/liverpool-fc/2012/07/07/lee-congerton-the-rhyl-man-who-s-worked-with-rodgers-mourinho-and-avb-55578-31341909/|archivedate=20 April 2013|df=dmy-all}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2012/oct/08/west-bromwich-albion-lee-congerton|title=West Bromwich's approach for Lee Congerton rejected by Hamburg|author=Stuart James|publisher=The Guardian|date=8 October 2012|accessdate=14 December 2012}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.safc.com/news/club-news/2014/march/sporting-director-announced|title=Sporting director appointed|author=Sunderland A.F.C.|date=12 March 2014|accessdate=12 March 2014}} 7. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.celticfc.net/news/12242 | title=Celtic delighted to welcome Lee Congerton as Head of Recruitment | publisher=Celtic | date=15 March 2017 | accessdate=15 March 2017}} 12 : Year of birth missing (living people)|Living people|Sportspeople from Rhyl|Welsh footballers|Liverpool F.C. non-playing staff|Chelsea F.C. non-playing staff|Crewe Alexandra F.C. players|Welsh expatriates in Germany|Wales under-21 international footballers|Association footballers not categorized by position|Sunderland A.F.C. non-playing staff|Celtic F.C. non-playing staff |
