Former world class player Lesscott visits the Generali-Arena

Joleon Lescott paid a visit to Austria Wien on Tuesday as part of his current role as Manchester City's Loan Coach. The 26-time English team player oversees Erik Palmer-Brown and was impressed by the stadium and the training conditions.

Sports Director Ralf Muhr led Joleon Lescott through the Generali Arena and showed him the training grounds and the modern gym. The Englishman, who played 160 games for Manchester City, took a close look at the development of central defender Erik Palmer-Brown, including speaking with coach Christian Ilzer and the medical department. His conclusion was very positive.

Lescott, now 37, won the championship twice with Manchester City (2012, 2014), the FA Cup (2011) and the League Cup (2014). An invitation to a home game of Austria Wien stands.

The training and development opportunities at Austria Wien convinced Manchester City to send Erik Palmer-Brown to Vienna with a purchase option after one year as a win-win situation. Since Ralf Muhr's visit to the Etihad campus in March, the Sports Director has maintained good contacts with Fergal Harkin, who is responsible for Football Partnership & Pathways Manager at Manchester City.
