Andy Carroll has taken over as caretaker manager at National League South club Dagenham & Redbridge.
The former England striker has stepped into the role after manager Lee Bradbury was sacked eight months into the job following the 3-2 win at Farnborough on Tuesday evening.
“We are very grateful to Lee for his focus, professionalism, and commitment during his time at the club,” read a club statement.
“Dagenham & Redbridge wish him every success in his future endeavours.
“Andy Carroll will take the team on an interim basis, and further updates will be communicated in due course.”
Carroll, 37, who has been sidelined since December through injury, is a shareholder as well as a player with the mid-table Daggers.
He will face a two-day trial in January 2027 after denying breaching a non-molestation order by repeatedly calling his ex-wife.
His appointment follows the arrival of YouTuber KSI, who joined the club as a shareholder and strategic partner this month, declaring his aim to take the club to the Premier League, external.
