U.S. Soccer announced on Tuesday that Chelsea’s manager Emma Hayes will be the new head coach of the United States women’s national team.

Hayes has signed a contract through 2027 and will assume her new position after the 2023-24 Women’s Super League season wraps up.

The move was widely expected ever since Chelsea announced Hayes’ departure earlier in November. In the statement announcing the news, the London club shared that the 47-year-old coach wants to pursue opportunities outside club football.

According to U.S. Soccer’s statement, Hayes will become the highest-paid women’s soccer coach in the world. ESPN reports that her salary will be in the neighborhood of $1.6 million that USMNT’s head coach Gregg Berhalter is earning annually.

“This is a huge honor to be given the opportunity to coach the most incredible team in world football history,” Hayes said in a statement. “The feelings and connection I have for this team and for this country run deep. I’ve dreamed about coaching the USA for a long time, so to get this opportunity is a dream come true.”

Emma Hayes has won six Women’s Super League titles and five Women’s FA Cup trophies since taking over Chelsea in 2012. She was named The Best FIFA Football Coach in 2021. Hayes already worked in the United States, coaching the Chicago Red Stars between 2008 and 2010.

Once she takes over the USWNT, Hayes will be tasked to return U.S. women to the top of the soccer world. After decades of dominance, the USWNT experienced a rough stretch in recent years that saw them finish third at the 2020  Olympic Games and be out of the 2023 World Cup in the Round of 16.

United States’ international striker Alex Morgan is taking her talents to England. According to multiple reports, Morgan is set to join Tottenham Hotspur on loan.

Morgan, who is under contract with Orlando Pride, will be at Tottenham until the end of the year. If two sides agree, the loan can be extended until the next summer when FA Women’s Super League 2020/21 season ends.

Tottenham, who will be playing its first season in Super League this year, previously acquired two more players from Orlando. Australian midfielder Alanna Kennedy and Canadian defender Shelina Zadorsky both came on loan in August after not being able to play for their parent team due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Alex Morgan is heading to her second playing stint in Europe. The 31-year-old USWNT star played for Lyon in 2017, making eight appearances for the club and scoring five goals.

Although she hasn’t been quite productive for Orlando in recent years, Morgan has been in stellar form for the national team. She was especially impressed in 2018 when she scored 18 times in 19 games. Overall, Morgan has scored 107 goals in 169 games with USWNT.
