Paul Cook’s return to Chesterfield as manager, seven years after leaving the club, has been confirmed.
Cook, who guided the Spireites to the League Two title and the League One play-offs during his previous spell, will be assisted by Danny Webb.
Chief executive John Croot said: “We are delighted to welcome Paul back to the club. He enjoyed great success here previously and to secure someone with his impressive track record is a real coup.
“Paul was our number one target when we began our search for a new manager and we are sure that our supporters will share our delight that he has agreed to take the role.
“Danny Webb is looking forward to working with Paul as part of the new management team.”
