Mark Warburton

Mark Warburton is the current manager of Championship team Queens Park Rangers and a former player who has had a long and illustrious career.

Warburton’s playing career was short lived, with stints at Enfield, Boreham Wood and Stoneyburn Juniors before injuries brought his career to an early finish. He then chose to focus his attention on training and coaching, travelling around Europe to watch coaching sessions at major clubs. Watford offered him a role in their youth academy, and he went on to be appointed manager of the youth academy in 2006. He later became first team coach at Brentford before being promoted to become manager in 2013. He successfully led the team to a promotion into the Championship in his first season with the club, Brentford’s best placing for more than 80 years. He stayed with the club for the next two years before moving to Scottish side Rangers and shortly after Nottingham Forest. Most recently he has taken the position of manager of Queens Park Rangers who he has worked with for two years. Outside of football management, Warburton is also the founder of Cycad Sports Management and the NextGen Series, an under 19 club cup competition which features teams from across Europe.

This well respected and experienced football manager remains a key figure at Queens Park Rangers and his career looks set to continue for many years to come.
