leaves Town

The former academy director and first-team coach is in talks with club chiefs, who will confirm his departure in the next few days.
Klug joined Town as a 16-year-old apprentice in 1977 and, apart from a short break in the early 1980s, has been at the club ever since.
He was hugely successful as director of the club's academy, producing a succession of future stars including Kieron Dyer, Richard Wright, Darren Bent, and Titus Bramble.
