Davids takes sole charge at Barnet

Former Dutch international Edgar Davids has taken over as sole head coach at English League Two club Barnet after the departure of Mark Robson, with whom he previously shared the role.

Davids, 39, joined Barnet in October as joint head coach alongside Robson but the club have struggled this season. The Bees have recently won back-to-back games, including victory over league leaders Gillingham, but they currently lie only three points above the relegation zone.

“Edgar Davids will continue in his role as head coach and will take full responsibility for all first team footballing matters,” said a statement on Barnet’s website.

“The club would like to thank Mark for all his efforts and hard work.”
