Willie Kirk Dismissed as Leicester Women's Team Manager

The sacking follows an investigation into Kirk's alleged relationship with a player, marking a breach of the team's code of conduct.

Willie Kirk was sacked by Leicester City's women's team after an investigation found he breached the team's code of conduct due to an alleged relationship with a player.
Kirk had been suspended since March 8, pending the investigation, and was absent from the team's 2-0 win over Liverpool in the Women's FA Cup quarter-final.
Leicester City has confirmed that first-team responsibilities will continue to be led by Jennifer Foster, supported by Stephen Kirby, while the club searches for a new permanent manager.
This incident marks the second time a manager has been dismissed for a similar reason this year, highlighting ongoing concerns about relationships between coaches and players in women's football.
The England manager, Sarina Wiegman, and several WSL managers have spoken out against player-coach relationships, emphasizing the need for a professional and safe environment.
