Pedro Martinez Losa leaves his role as Scotland women's head coach
The Spaniard failed to lead Scotland to two major tournaments
Pedro Martinez Losa has been sacked as the manager of the Scotland women's national team.
The Spaniard failed to lead Scotland to Euro 2025, with the team losing to Finland in the final play-off earlier this month.
Scotland also missed out on the 2023 World Cup, suffering defeat against the Republic of Ireland at Hampden Park in the decisive match.
The 48-year-old had been in charge since 2021 and had a contract until 2027.
Scottish FA Chief Executive Ian Maxwell said: “I would like to thank Pedro for his efforts over the past three and a half years. While we shouldn’t lose sight of the recent unbeaten run, and winning promotion from Nations League Group B, the primary objective was to qualify for a major tournament again.”
Pedro Martinez Losa added: “I am immensely proud of the journey we have undertaken as a group and it has been a privilege to lead the Scotland Women’s National Team. Watching young talent flourish alongside our experienced players has been a highlight of my time here.
“I leave with fond memories and gratitude to my squad, backroom staff, and the passionate supporters, who have been unwavering in their backing. Scotland will always hold a special place in my heart, and I wish the team every success in the future.”
