Celtic Women name Sadiku as head coach


Celtic Women have appointed Elena Sadiku as their new head coach on a two-and-a-half-year deal.

She joins from a similar role at Everton's WSL Academy and becomes the club's first female head coach, replacing Fran Alonso who departed for Houston Dash last month.

Sadiku will be assisted by interim boss David Haley and take up her new role in Glasgow on Monday, after the club's SWPL game against Montrose on Sunday.

"This is such a great day for me and my family, to join a club of Celtic's standing and stature at such an exciting time for our women's team," she said.

"It is a real honour to be given this wonderful opportunity and I can't wait to get started, particularly with so many important games coming up.
