Manchester United have appointed Polly Bancroft as their inaugural head of women's football.
United began their search to hire the club's first ever Head of Women's Football last December as they looked to help players and staff compete at an elite level.
Bancroft, who joins from Brighton, where she held the role of general manager for women’s and girls’ football, will also be tasked with playing a key role in ensuring the women's side meets strategic aims and objectives, while she will also be responsible for implementing a playing style across all women's teams.
