Kirk left Leicester last year and acknowledged ‘mistake’
Liverpool confirm Arsenal-bound Taylor Hinds is leaving
The former Leicester and Everton manager Willie Kirk is closing in on a return to football after holding advanced talks with the Swedish top-flight women’s team Linköping about becoming their head coach.
Kirk, who also managed Hibernian and Bristol City before a spell as Manchester United’s assistant manager, has been out of management since he was sacked by Leicester in March 2024 because he had a relationship with one of the club’s players. Later last year, in an interview with the Daily Mail, Kirk said: “I’ve made a mistake and I’ve been punished for my mistake. I take responsibility for that.”
