Published: Tue, 01 Jul 2025 11:01:28 GMT
Ah, July! The month when football fans everywhere are glued to their screens, not for the matches, but for the managerial merry-go-round that is the transfer window. It’s like a soap opera, but with more drama and fewer commercial breaks. BBC Sport has been tracking all the manager ins and outs across the Premier League, Scottish Premiership, Women’s Super League, English Football League, and National League, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride!
First up, the Premier League. It’s been a game of musical chairs, with managers swapping clubs faster than you can say “tactical genius.” Chelsea, in their infinite wisdom, have decided to bring back Jose Mourinho for a third stint. Because, you know, third time’s the charm, right? Meanwhile, Manchester United have appointed a manager so young, he still gets ID’d at the pub. But hey, at least he’s got fresh ideas!
Over in the Scottish Premiership, Celtic have gone for a bold move by hiring a manager from the Icelandic league. Apparently, they were impressed by his ability to manage a team in sub-zero temperatures. Rangers, not to be outdone, have appointed a former player who once scored a hat-trick against them. Talk about keeping your enemies close!
The Women’s Super League has seen its fair share of changes too. Arsenal have brought in a manager known for her no-nonsense approach and ability to make players run laps until they drop. Manchester City, on the other hand, have opted for a manager who believes in the power of yoga and meditation. Namaste, indeed!
In the English Football League, it’s been a revolving door of managers, with some clubs changing gaffers more often than they change their kits. And in the National League, well, let’s just say that if you can spell “tactics,” you’re in with a shot at a job.
As the dust settles on this whirlwind of managerial changes, one thing is clear: football is as unpredictable as ever. Whether these new appointments will lead to glory or disaster remains to be seen. But one thing’s for sure, we’ll be here, popcorn in hand, ready to watch it all unfold. After all, in the world of football, the only constant is change. And we wouldn’t have it any other way!
