Exclusive: MK Dons agree deal with Crawley to name Scott Lindsey as new manager
MK Dons have agreed a deal with Crawley Town as they prepare to name Scott Lindsey as their new manager, sources have told Football Insider.
The 52-year-old successfully led Crawley to promotion from League Two and is now poised to take charge at Stadium MK following a breakthrough in negotiations.
The Dons have been searching for a new manager since former boss Mike Williamson took the vacant job at Carlisle United.
The League Two side met a release clause to sign Williamson, leaving his former club without a manager.
MK Dons have now reached a full agreement to bring in Lindsey, who is set to take charge of the club imminently.
The Dons currently sit 19th in League Two after a mixed start to the season with two wins, a draw, and four defeats.
MK Dons will rely on Scott Lindsey’s experience
The Dons will be looking to rely on Lindsey’s experience as a manager to try to guide them to promotion.
Lindsey is a proven coach at this level after his success last season, and he currently boasts a 41.4 win percentage at Crawley.
Prior to his current job, Lindsey had been in charge of Swindon Town from June 2022 to January 2023.
The Dons are without a win in their previous three matches in all competitions.
The League Two side will be back in action on Saturday (28 September) against newly promoted Bromley.
