2024 Ballon d'Or Women's Team Coach of the Year nominees - revealed | OneFootball

The six managers in the running for the 2024 edition of the Ballon d'Or Women's Team Coach of the Year have been revealed.

The award recognises the best managers leading female clubs across the globe over the last season, both at club and international level.

Chelsea fans should be breathing a sigh of relief after new head coach Sonia Bompastor earned herself a spot on the list. The former Lyon boss helped her side win three consecutive league titles during her time in France - becoming the first woman to win the Champions League as both a player and a coach.

Despite not winning any silverware, England manager Sarina Wiegman has been recognised for securing the Lionesses a spot in the 2023 World Cup final for the first time in history.

It's no surprise Emma Hayes bagged a nomination. Hayes managed to secure a gold medal at this year's Paris Olympics with thr USWNT shortly after leading Chelsea to a fifth successive WSL title.
