The Aston Villa manager, Carla Ward, has called player-coach relationships in women’s football “unacceptable” following the news that Willie Kirk has been suspended and is being investigated by Leicester City over an alleged relationship with a player.
Earlier this season Sheffield United sacked Jonathan Morgan for an alleged relationship with a player during his time at Leicester City, before the club was professional and affiliated with the men’s side.
