Mike McKenzie has now been appointed manager of Dyce
Dyce juniors have appointed former Lossiemouth, Montrose, Deveronvale, Cove Rangers and Turriff United attacker Mike McKenzie as their new manager.
The 35-year-old, who won the league title twice with Vale, announced he was retiring last month after an X-ray revealed arthritis in one of his hip joints. McKenzie replaces Andy Robb who left the club before just before Christmas.
McKenzie, who has been coaching the Turriff under-20s this season, said: “I had applied for the Dyce job and was interviewed for the post last Sunday, it went really well and I was very happy to accept it when it was offered as I think I am a good match for the club in what I can bring to them.
“Dyce have an excellent set-up, they have an ambitious committee and I think it is the ideal club for me to cut my teeth on in management. Taking the under-20s at Turriff has been good experience but I am really excited about the prospect of putting my own stamp on the team at Dyce after seeing what I have at the moment.”
