Martin Ho has had previous spells at Everton and Manchester United Tottenham manager Martin Ho has signed a new long-term contract with the Women's Super League club. The 35-year-old joined in July 2025 from Norwegian side SK Brann and has had an impressive first campaign. Spurs currently sit fifth in the WSL table with nine wins from 18 matches and, with four games remaining, are four points away from beating their best points tally of 32, set in 2021-22.

They are six points behind fourth-placed Arsenal - who have two games in hand - and the two meet on Saturday at Emirates Stadium (17:30 GMT). Ho, a former Manchester United assistant coach, picked up the February manager of the month award following strong displays from his side. He said: "I'm really proud to extend my time at Tottenham Hotspur.

I want to thank the club for the trust and belief they've shown in me. "That alignment is vital when you're building something with real purpose. From the moment I arrived, there was a clear vision around the direction of the club.

"Together, we've started to lay strong foundations in terms of identity, standards, and the way we want to work every day. "There has been progress, but we know there is much more to come. " Ben Haines, Ellen White and Jen Beattie are back for another season of the Women's Football Weekly podcast.
