Robert Vilahamn's Future at Tottenham Hangs in the Balance After Disappointing Season

Tottenham Hotspur considers sacking manager Robert Vilahamn after a lackluster season in the Women's Super League, despite reaching the FA Cup final.

Tottenham Hotspur is at a crossroads with Robert Vilahamn as the club deliberates over his future following a challenging season. Despite leading the team to the Women's FA Cup final in his first year, the club's performance in the Women's Super League (WSL) has been underwhelming, finishing second from the bottom.

Vilahamn, who joined from Swedish club BK Hacken in 2023, was initially seen as a promising addition to the team. However, the 2024-25 season saw Tottenham concede more goals than any other team except the relegated Crystal Palace, and their points tally dropped by 11 compared to the previous season.

The club had set its sights on narrowing the gap with the WSL's top four, but internal sources indicate dissatisfaction with the team's progress under Vilahamn's leadership. This sentiment was further compounded by the departure of Vicky Jepson, the senior assistant coach, who has moved to the United States women's youth teams.

As the Tottenham board prepares for a pivotal summer of recruitment, the decision on Vilahamn's future remains uncertain. The club's leadership is under pressure to make strategic decisions that could reshape the team's trajectory in the upcoming seasons.
