The United States WNT head coach Emma Hayes said she wants to see the future of the game through "a female lens" as she builds a long-term strategy for the program.

United States women's national team coach Emma Hayes said on Monday that she was "unwell" before taking on her new role, but experiences so far have helped her get her "mojo back."

When it comes to her tenure as the USWNT boss, Hayes is, in her words, “fresh out of the packet”, but she is already thinking about her legacy, explaining that unifying the US talent pool under a women’s football development strategy is “going to be the biggest piece” of what she leaves behind.
