Tottenham Hotspur are set to appoint Martin Ho as the new head coach of their women’s team.
Ho, currently the head coach of Norwegian side SK Brann, has previously been an assistant at both Everton and Manchester United. He also spent a spell as the head coach of Liverpool’s Under-21 women’s team.
He will replace Robert Vilahamn, who departed the club after two years last month on the same weekend that Ange Postecoglou was sacked by the men’s side.
Ho, 35, was appointed by Brann in 2023 and guided the side to the quarter-finals of the Women’s Champions League before being knocked out by eventual champions Barcelona.
This season, Brann sit second in the Norwegian Toppserien, one point behind defending champions Valerenga.
Vilahamn led Spurs to a top-six Women’s Super League (WSL) finish and the club’s first-ever FA Cup final, which they lost to Manchester United, in the 2023-24 campaign.
The 42-year-old Swede subsequently signed a three-year contract extension through to 2027 at the north London club.
However, 2024-25 saw a downturn in results with a 10-game winless run from January seeing Spurs record an 11th-place WSL finish, just one place from the foot of the table and relegation.
