Olid poised for Man Utd job

New era at Old Trafford

Manchester United Women are on the verge of naming Eva Olid as their next head coach, bringing the former Hearts Women boss in to replace Marc Skinner after his five-year stint at the club.

Captain rallies the troops

Skipper Maya Le Tissier insists the squad will "stick together" heading into the new Women's Super League campaign. She and teammate Ella Toone publicly thanked Skinner for his work on Tuesday, a day after learning of his departure in a Monday morning meeting - just before the news went public.

No player input on appointment

Le Tissier confirmed that neither she nor Toone were consulted about who should take the reins next. Still, both expect a decision imminently. Olid is reportedly viewed as the perfect fit to develop talent within the current squad and the academy pipeline.

Unity amid upheaval

Le Tissier struck a defiant tone, insisting the group has always had each other's backs through turbulent spells. She expressed full confidence in the squad's readiness for the season ahead. New coach or not, the captain's message was clear: this team isn't about to wobble.
