- Hammers finished eighth but reached Continental Cup semis
Paul Konchesky has left his position as West Ham manager after the Women’s Super League season ended on Saturday, a year after his appointment.
The former England defender, who made 70 appearances for the Hammers, was promoted from assistant in May 2022 when Olli Harder departed. Konchesky signed a two-year deal but has left the Hammers after just 29 games in charge, with the club finishing eighth in the WSL table following a 2-2 draw at home to their London rivals Tottenham in their final match of the campaign.

“I am proud and honoured to have had the opportunity to manage this club,” Konchesky told the club’s website. “My players and my staff have always given me 100% and while some of our results have been disappointing this season, we still have a lot to be proud of, including reaching the semi-final of the Conti Cup. I wish the club well for the future.”
West Ham Women’s general manager, Aidan Boxall, said: “We would like to thank Paul for his contribution to the club, both as manager and during his spell as assistant manager. He has played a key role in the ongoing development of the women’s team and we wish him well for the future.”
