Dario Vidosic is set to be named as the new manager of Women’s Super League side Brighton on a three-year deal. <\/b><\/p>\n
He will start the role once his work permit has been processed and he can move to England.<\/p>\n
Vidosic, 37, has been in charge of Melbourne City Women in Australia’s A-League for the past two seasons.<\/p>\n
A former Australia international as a player, Vidosic takes over from interim Brighton boss Mikey Harris, who oversaw the second half of their WSL campaign.<\/p>\n
Harris, who will return to his role at Brighton’s men’s academy, guided the WSL side to a ninth-place finish after the sacking of Melissa Phillips in February. <\/p>\n
Vidosic guided Melbourne City to the A-League title last season, before losing to Sydney in the Women’s Grand Final. <\/p>\n
He is set to be joined by former Everton assistant manager Chris Roberts, who will form part of his coaching staff after leaving the Toffees at the end of the season. <\/p>\n
Brighton hope Vidosic will guide them closer to the top four, which had been dominated by Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United until Liverpool broke into it last season.<\/p>\n
The club invested \u00a38m in a new training complex for the women in 2022 as part of their strategy to break into the top four.<\/p>\n
They have been able to attract a number of high-profile players since, including former Barcelona captain Vicky Losada and two-time Champions League winner Pauline Bremer, while England international Fran Kirby joined this month<\/a>. <\/p>\n Vidosic will be expected to help implement Brighton’s distinctive style of possession-based football. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
