Emma Hayes Says ‘Time Is Right’ To Leave Chelsea

Chelsea manager Emma Hayes said the “time is right” to move on from the English club at the end of the season and refused to be drawn on media reports linking her with the role of the United States women’s national team head coach.

Last week, Chelsea confirmed in a statement that Hayes would depart the London club at the end of the ongoing season “to pursue a new opportunity outside of the Women’s Super League and club football”.
