Where is Christian Dailly now?
A versatile player who could play in defence or midfield, Christian Dailly retired from playing in 2012 after a short spell at Southend United which ended a 22-year professional playing career.
A three-time winner of the Scottish Cup (once with Dundee United and twice with Rangers), he also won the Scottish Premier League, the Scottish League Cup and a UEFA Cup runners-up medal during his time at Rangers.
A cult hero at Upton Park because of his never-say-die attitude and high fitness levels whilst playing, Dailly was a Championship play-off winner with the club and won an FA Cup runners-up medal in 2006 after West Ham’s defeat on penalties to Liverpool in what has been heralded as one of the modern game’s greatest finals.
Dailly also had a decent international career with Scotland winning 67 caps with the national side and captaining them on 12 occasions.
Upon retiring from playing Dailly started a new career as an athletics coach and is qualified to coach both sprinters and endurance athletes having completed a sports science degree with first-class honours.
He has also worked a pundit on Sky Sports for their coverage of the Scottish league and cups and guested on the Sky Sports News channel.
