Matildas players, including injured captain Sam Kerr, will be consulted by Football Australia in the crucial search for the team’s next coach. Two weeks after Tony Gustavsson’s departure, FA has started the recruitment process for the coach to lead Australia through the next cycle, including the home 2026 Asian Cup, the 2027 Women’s World Cup and 2028 Olympics. “We need the players involved. That’s important,” FA chief executive James Johnson told AAP. “The players don’t make the decisions.
“We can’t wait to welcome Sam back into the team, and yes, she’ll have a very important role to play when I consult with the players moving forward on the new coach.” Johnson previously consulted senior players after Ante Milicic’s departure in 2020. He pointed to Gustavsson taking Australia to unprecedented Women’s World Cup and Olympics semi-final berths as evidence of its value. “The players told me what they didn’t like about the previous four years, then what they did like,” Johnson said.
