Arsenal assistant manager Kelly Smith wants former coach Laura Harvey to become the next England manager.

The FA’s search for a new manager of the England Women’s team will involve greater scrutiny than the hiring of Mark Sampson, and they are likely to appoint a female manager to the role, according to reports.

Arsenal’s Jodie Taylor says she’s open to offers to leave the Gunners this winter, when her current contract expires.

Women in Football claims that the FA have known about the allegations currently facing former England Women’s coach, Mark Sampson, since 2013.

England women’s manager Mark Sampson has ‘stepped down’ after alleged “inappropriate and unacceptable behaviour” during his time at Bristol Academy has been brought to the FA’s attention.

Arsenal’s Jordan Nobbs picked up two awards at the FA Women’s Football Awards recently, after a very good year for the player at both club and international level.

Arsenal’s Alex Scott says that the inquiry into Mark Sampson has to be fair, as it looks to find the answers to “lots of unanswered questions”.

The Football Association will be questioned by MPs over their handling of bullying and discrimination claims from Eni Aluko.

The FA has disclosed the full broadcast fixture list for the FA WSL from September to early November, and there will be plenty of opportunities to watch Arsenal Women.
