Vidosic is excited to embrace the challenges in the WSL as the new Albion head coach.

Dario Vidosic is looking forward to starting his Albion journey this season after he was named our new women’s first-team head coach.

The 37-year-old joined us on Wednesday on a contract that runs until June 2027.

Dario said, “It’s a whirlwind of emotions. I’m excited to be here.

“The challenge was a big factor for me to take this role. I think going to the best league in the world to play against the best clubs in the world was a big pull as well. I want to have success with Brighton.

“I was sitting on my couch and planning the squad together for next season. I then got a message saying Brighton would like to have a conversation with me.

“I think it felt like a fast process at the start, then it felt like it went a lot longer at times because of the visa application. I've been told many great things about Brighton and that it's a fantastic place - I’m excited to get started.”

Dario led Melbourne City to the A-League title last season in his first campaign as head coach. He expressed his excitement to compete in the WSL and reiterated his desire to face the challenges head-on.

“I'm not shying away from the challenge one bit – I'm looking forward to it. I can’t wait to play against those teams and face that challenge head-on.

“We want to play our way and with an attractive brand of football that people love to come and watch. We've got a talented group of girls and I'm looking forward to seeing what they can do.”
