Everton Women have named Brian Sorensen as their new manager. The Dane, who will pen an initial two-year contract, will take charge at the end of the current season.
Sorensen, who turns 42 in June, has experience of coaching in women’s football in his native country going back 13 years and has been in charge of current employers Fortuna Hjorring over two spells – steering them to a brace of Danish titles in 2014 and 2016, securing a domestic double in the latter – with other stints at IK Skovbakken and FC Nordsjaelland.
He said : “I’m extremely excited to join Everton. It is one of the historic clubs in women’s football and our backgrounds fit nicely, with common values, work ethic and ambitions.
