Manchester City have appointed Andree Jeglertz as their new head coach. Jeglertz, currently leading Denmark in Euro 2025, will join the Women's Super League club after the tournament concludes. City parted ways with Gareth Taylor during the 2024-25 season due to an unsuccessful title challenge, with Nick Cushing stepping in temporarily.

Jeglertz has been managing Denmark since September 2023, achieving 13 wins out of 22 matches (D1 L8). His win rate stands at 59.1%, with his team scoring 41 goals and conceding 30. He expressed his excitement about joining Manchester City, stating, "I'm honoured to be part of this big and great club."

The Swedish coach is eager to meet the players, staff, and fans. He aims to elevate the team's performance and ensure they play attractive and winning football. Jeglertz also highlighted the influence of Therese Sjogran and Charlotte O'Neill in his decision to join the club.

Jeglertz's coaching career includes winning the UEFA Women's Cup with Umea in 2004, which later became known as the Champions League. At Umea, he was twice named Damallsvenskan Manager of the Year. His experience and success make him a valuable addition to Manchester City's coaching staff.

Challenges Ahead for Manchester City

Last season, Manchester City finished fourth in the WSL, narrowly missing out on Champions League qualification by just one point. The club hopes that Jeglertz's leadership will help them achieve better results in future competitions.

Jeglertz is determined to continue building on the foundation laid by his predecessors and aims to bring success to Manchester City Women through strategic planning and effective coaching methods.

The appointment of Andree Jeglertz marks a new chapter for Manchester City Women as they strive for excellence under his guidance. With a strong track record and clear vision, Jeglertz is poised to lead the team towards greater achievements.
