Hayes has led Chelsea to six Women’s Super League titles, five FA Cups and two League Cups.
Chelsea boss Emma Hayes will depart the Blues at the end of the season for a position “outside club football” after more than a decade in charge, the Women’s Super League club have announced.
A club statement read: “Chelsea FC can today confirm that highly decorated Chelsea Women’s manager Emma Hayes OBE will depart the club at the end of the season to pursue a new opportunity outside of the WSL and club football.”Hayes joined Chelsea in 2012, six years before the WSL became fully professional, and has transformed her side, who are currently in the process of defending their fourth consecutive title.
Chelsea co-sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley said: “Emma has been one of the biggest drivers of change in women’s football. Her achievements at Chelsea are unrivalled and will live in the club’s history forever. “There will be plenty of time to celebrate Emma’s many achievements at the club and to give her the farewell she deserves, but for now, as she always has been, Emma will be solely focused on making this season as successful as possible for Chelsea.”
Ex-England international Fara Williams looked shocked when she heard the news for the first time live on a BBC broadcast.
