No WSL experience but who is new Man Utd boss Olid?
Manchester United appoint former Hearts boss Eva Olid as their new women's manager on a two-year deal, with an option for a further 12 months.
Manchester United has appointed Eva Olid as their new women's team manager on a two-year contract with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. Olid, 40, replaces the departing Marc Skinner, who left the position by mutual consent before the start of the Women's Super League season. Olid leads Hearts to their maiden Scottish Women's Premier League title, achieving a remarkable turnaround in just five years.
She prioritized an attacking strategy, primarily employing a 3-4-3 formation with her goalkeepers playing a crucial role as fourth defenders. Her success at Hearts earned her a dream job at Manchester United Women, a club she described as having immense potential.
