Hartlepool United have confirmed the appointment of Danny Nye as the club's new head of performance and sports science.
Nye, who served as head of performance at League One side Barnsley during the 2025/26 season and has built up considerable experience across professional football and elite performance sport thanks to stints at the likes of Ipswich Town, the University of Stirling, Heart of Midlothian Women and British Weight Lifting's elite performance pathway, replaces Jake Lloyd after he accepted a new role working with Championship side Lincoln City.
In a statement, Pools say Nye's appointment "continues the transformation of Hartlepool United's football department as the club further strengthens the expertise and support surrounding the first-team environment ahead of the 2026/27 National League campaign".
