Marc Skinner departs Manchester United women's team ahead of WSL season

Marc Skinner has left his position as head coach of Manchester United's women's team just a month before the Women's Super League opener against London City Lionesses. The decision follows ongoing discussions about the team's future direction, characterized by concerns over investment and inconsistent playing style. Skinner, who previously called for more investment to compete effectively, now leaves the club as it shifts focus toward developing talent from its academy rather than high-profile signings. This move aims to establish a more sustainable and long-term strategy for the women's program.
