Kieran McKenna is eagerly anticipating a significant moment as he prepares to face his former club, Manchester United, with his current team, Ipswich Town. Reflecting on his early memories, McKenna recalls attending his first United match at the age of seven, when his father took him to Old Trafford in May 1994. Although the game ended in a goalless draw against Coventry, it was a memorable experience as he witnessed Sir Alex Ferguson's team celebrate their title victory. Growing up in County Fermanagh, McKenna naturally gravitated towards supporting United, a passion that has endured for over three decades. This Sunday, McKenna's Ipswich will host United at Portman Road, marking a challenging debut for United's new manager, Ruben Amorim. While the focus might typically be on the visiting side, McKenna's journey with Ipswich has positioned him to approach this match with confidence and the hope of securing a positive outcome. His decision to leave the coaching staff at United for a struggling League One club may have seemed risky at the time, but it has ultimately led to significant progress for both him and Ipswich. Now, as he prepares to face his old club, McKenna is ready to embrace the challenge and showcase how far his team has come.
