Pedro Martinez Losa: Scotland women head coach role departs after Euro 2025 qualifying failure

Pedro Martinez Losa is leaving the Scotland women head coach role after the side failed to qualify for Euro 2025.

The Spaniard’s side lost 2-0 on aggregate to play-off opponents Finland this month and also missed out on the 2023 World Cup via the play-offs.

Martinez Losa, 48, was given a new contract by the Scottish FA taking him through to the 2027 World Cup in 2027, but the decision has been taken to end his tenure early.

A recruitment process is under way to find a new head coach, with Nations League games scheduled for February.

Scotland women last reached a major tournament when Shelley Kerr’s side featured at the 2019 World Cup in France. It was a second successive finals appearance.
