Lauren Phillips

The Arsenal Women u21 head coach Lauren Phillips was recruited last summer from her previous job as assistant manager at Millwall Lionesses. She tweeted on Tuesday that she will now take on a new challenge.

Two braces from Lashante Paul and Paige Bailey-Gayle alongside the opener from Shauna Vassell gave Arsenal a comfortable win against the United Development team in Loughborough on Sunday.

Arsenal Women have hired Lauren Phillips to work as head coach of the u21 side at the Women’s Academy.
