“The players responded brilliantly to the challenge when I was handed the role last season and I’m looking forward to continuing that relationship as we prepare for our seventh straight season in the Premier League,” said Hart.
Al Fahim said: “Paul did a great job keeping the team in the Premier League last season and having previously worked as director of youth operations he knows the club inside out.
“He has immense experience and a great knowledge of the game and commands the respect of the players. I’m looking forward to working with him.”
