Marc Skinner leaves his position as head coach of Manchester United Women after five years at the club, ahead of the start of the Women’s Super League (WSL) season. Multiple outlets report that the decision is made by mutual consent. Skinner takes over the role in July 2021, following the departure of Casey Stoney. During his tenure, he guides Manchester United to two top-three finishes in the WSL. In the most recent WSL season, United finish fourth, which means they miss out on European qualification. Sources also note that Skinner had a new contract in place prior to this departure, including a two-year deal signed last summer, with an option for an additional year, though the specifics of contract termination are not consistently detailed across all reports. The club’s next coaching arrangements are not covered in the shared accounts. Several reports indicate further information is expected soon.
