Oldham Athletic have appointed Frankie Bunn as their new manager.
The 55-year-old has penned a one-year deal and succeeds Richie Wellens at the helm of the League Two club.
Oldham were relegated from League One on the final day of the season in May, leading to Wellens' departure on June 8.
Bunn, a former striker, played for the Latics between 1987 and 1990 and scored 35 goals in 88 appearances before his career was cut short through injury.
Speaking about the appointment, owner Abdallah Lemsagam said: “We are delighted to welcome Frankie Bunn to the club as first team manager.
“He knows the club very well from his playing time here and he has a wealth of experience working with young talent which has impressed me.
“I believe he can take the club forward and give Boundary Park something to cheer about.”
