Henning Berg named as new Legia Warsaw boss

Former Blackburn Rovers boss Henning Berg has been named as the new manager of Polish side Legia Warsaw.

The Norwegian, who was sacked by Rovers last year after just 57 days at the helm, will take charge of his new team on January 1.

Legia Warsaw will be Berg's fourth management job, following stints with Norwegian sides Lyn and Lillestrom, as well as Blackburn.

Legia Warsaw are currently top of the Polish top flight with 43 points from 21 matches played.
