He knows women’s football!’ – Chelsea women’s manager Hayes excited about 'open-minded' Tuchel

The two coaches have guided their sides to the semi-finals of the men's and women's Champions League competitions and could create history together

Chelsea women’s manager Emma Hayes has lauded the knowledge of men’s head coach Thomas Tuchel on the women’s game, following conversations between the two coaches.

Tuchel was appointed by Chelsea back in January after the departure of Frank Lampard. He has since guided the team to the semi-finals of the Champions League and the final of the FA Cup.

It’s a good time to be a fan of the club – with Hayes’ side top of the Women’s Super League table and also in the last four in Europe, having picked up the Continental Cup earlier this season. Speaking to the media this week ahead of her side’s second leg with Bayern Munich on Sunday, Hayes expressed her excitement about what is going on across the board in the club.
