For some, it may come as a surprise. Despite sitting fourth in the table, London City Lionesses are parting ways with head coach Jocelyn Prêcheur.

  • Prêcheur joined the club in summer 2024, led them to the 2024/25 Women's Championship title and their first WSL promotion, and was well-liked within the club.
  • The club cited a desire for a new strategic direction under owner Michele Kang as a key reason for the managerial change.
  • London City’s recent results included six league defeats, with the latest loss to Leicester contributing to rising pressure on the coach.
