Aston Villa sack women’s team manager Natalia Arroyo after the club records a winless start to the Women’s Super League season. Following a 4-0 defeat by Tottenham, the club removes Arroyo from her role.

Across outlets, the decision is linked to results in the early fixtures: Villa have two points from their first four league matches, consisting of two defeats and two draws. The Guardian and other reports also note Villa sit second-bottom in the league table during this period. One outlet adds that Arroyo began her tenure in January 2025, previously keeping the side safe before finishing ninth in her first full campaign. Reports describe a decline in form that continues into the current season, where Villa have not won any of their opening four WSL matches.
