Danish coach Nils Nielsen appointed technical director for Como women's team

Danish football coach Nils Nielsen is embarking on a new chapter in his international career, taking on the role of technical director for Como's women's team. This appointment follows his departure as the head coach of the Japanese women's national team in April.

Nielsen, who previously managed the Danish women's national team, expressed his eagerness to join the Italian club. He noted that Como is a relatively young club but has a promising project with a positive outlook. "The club is quite young, but the project is well underway, and everyone is very positive about it. I feel a really good vibe here," Nielsen stated, according to the club's website.

The team is celebrating a historic promotion to Serie A, a success Nielsen believes provides strong momentum. "The team comes from a great success with the historic promotion to Serie A, and that gives good energy that we need to build on," he said. Nielsen, who also has experience coaching the Swiss women's national team and serving as football director for Manchester City's women's team, is committed to leveraging his expertise.

He emphasized his dedication to building upon the club's existing foundation. "I will do everything to ensure that we continue to work on the good foundation that has already been created," Nielsen affirmed. He concluded by stressing the importance of commitment and hard work for achieving significant results: "No results come without dedication and hard work, and we will do everything we can to achieve something significant."
