Rotate signs outfitting deal with Denmark's women's football team
Danish fashion label Rotate is bringing signature style to the sidelines as the official off-field outfitter for Denmark's women's national football team. The partnership, which runs through 2026, debuted with a travel capsule revealed just ahead of the UEFA Women's Euro 2025 tournament, which kicked off in Switzerland on 2 July. Founded in 2018 by designers Jeanette Madsen and Thora Valdimars, Rotate is known for its bold silhouettes, structured denim, and playful femininity. For the national team, the brand created a coordinated wardrobe featuring sky-blue button-up shirts with floral embroidery, matching shorts, signature denim pieces, as well as polos and caps. The collaboration marks Rotate's second with the Danish Football Association (DBU). In April 2023, the label partnered with the team's kit supplier, Hummel, on a limited-edition capsule that included a co-branded jersey and matching sportswear items designed by Rotate. 'We're proud to support and help raise the visibility of women's football—both in Denmark and internationally,' the brand said in a statement. Based in Copenhagen, Rotate is a mainstay at Copenhagen Fashion Week and operates a flagship store in the city. The brand reported €16 million in global sales in 2023.

Manchester City Women close to appointing Denmark manager Jeglertz
Manchester City are close to agreeing a deal to appoint the Denmark national team manager, Andrée Jeglertz, as their new women's head coach. It is understood that the proposed move would enable the Swedish coach to remain in charge of Denmark until the conclusion of the European Championship in Switzerland this summer, before taking over the Women's Super League side that finished fourth in the English top tier last season. A deal with Jeglertz is yet to be concluded fully but multiple sources have confirmed discussions are at an advanced stage and he has been City's first-choice candidate after an extensive search to replace Gareth Taylor, who was sacked in March. Nick Cushing was put in temporary charge of the team but he is not understood to have been in the frame for the long-term position. Jeglertz has been in charge of Denmark since 2023, having taken over after the World Cup that year, but on Tuesday there were reports in the Danish media that his likely successor has already been lined up by the Danish Football Association in anticipation of his exit after the European Championship this summer. His contract with the Danish FA is understood to expire after the tournament so no compensation nor release fee would be required. The 53-year-old has extensive experience coaching in the women's game and led the Swedish club Umeå to lift the women's European Cup – then known as the Uefa Women's Cup – in 2004 with a squad that included the Brazil legend Marta. City believe he suits their model for a technical style of play and that his coaching and tactical philosophies fit City Football Group's preferred profile. The search to replace Taylor was led by the women's team football director, Therese Sjögran, and the managing director, Charlotte O'Neill. It is their first major appointment since their respective arrivals in 2024 and 2023. In a lengthy managerial career that has stretched more than 22 years, Jeglertz has also managed the Swedish teams Djurgården and Linköping, as well as the Finland national team. As a player he was a defender, predominantly for Umeå and represented Sweden at youth international level.

The club have won the WSL title once, in 2016, but have now endured three consecutive trophyless seasons.
