Für Montse Tomé ist Schluss

Overview

  • The Real Federación Española de Fútbol confirmed Montserrat Tomé’s contract will not be renewed and she will leave after it expires on 31 August.
  • Sonia Bermúdez, most recently head coach of Spain’s U-20 side, is set to take charge of the senior women’s team from 1 September.
  • Observers have questioned Bermúdez’s readiness for a senior role given her lack of professional head-coaching experience and past public support for Luis Rubiales.
  • Under Tomé’s two-year tenure Spain captured the 2024 Nations League title and reached the Euro 2025 final, but persistent distance between her and key players fueled calls for change.
  • Bermúdez’s first major assignment will be the Nations League Final Four in October, paving the way toward preparations for the 2027 World Cup in Brazil.
