Emma Hayes

Lineker reveals Leicester ignored Hayes recommendation

Gary Lineker has revealed that he personally reached out to Leicester City to recommend the appointment of Emma Hayes as manager following the club's relegation from the Premier League in 2023. The legendary former Foxes striker believed the move would have been a masterstroke for both tactical and cultural reasons, potentially making Hayes the first woman to lead a professional men's team in England.
