Southampton appoint Will Still as manager on three-year contract

On 25 May 2025, Southampton secured Will Still on a three-year contract to take charge of the men's first team at St Mary's Stadium.
The club hired Still after enduring a record-breaking relegation season with only 12 points and 30 losses in a 38-game Premier League campaign.
Most recently, he led RC Lens to a top-half finish in Ligue 1 and is known for implementing a dynamic, high-intensity style of play rooted in a well-defined tactical approach.
Southampton’s Group Technical Director Johannes Spors praised Still as a young, innovative manager with clarity in philosophy and adaptability for Championship challenges.
Still is immersing himself at Southampton five weeks before pre-season with goals to build a cohesive, high-energy team that secures immediate promotion back to the Premier League.
