GARY O'DRISCOLL is set to start as Manchester United's new head of medical services on Monday.<\/p>\n

The former Arsenal club doctor is joining the Red Devils after 15 years in North London.<\/p>\n

United agreed O'Driscoll's arrival back in July after he previously came close to joining Liverpool in 2020.<\/p>\n

The 53-year-old Irishman had been the Gunners' club doctor before becoming their head of medical in 2017.<\/p>\n

Prior to O'Driscoll's arrival at Old Trafford, Jim Moxon has been working as United's interim head of medical services following the departure of Steve McNally in December last year.<\/p>\n
