Bompastor's Rise: Building on Hayes' Legacy as a Formidable Force in Sports.

Sonia Bompastor looks on

Chelsea Women face Manchester United in the FA Cup Final on Sunday, 18 May at Wembley. The game is set to air live on BBC Two, 5 Sports Extra, and the BBC Sport website and app. Chelsea, under the management of Sonia Bompastor, have had a near-perfect season, winning the Women's Super League (WSL) title with an unbeaten record, claiming the Women's League Cup, and are poised to win the Treble. Bompastor took over from former manager Emma Hayes in August 2024 and has built on the success already established by Hayes, adding new signings like Sandy Baltimore, Lucy Bronze, and Keira Walsh, among others. Despite her calm demeanor, Bompastor is a perfectionist who demands success, setting a club-record WSL points tally this season and aiming for perfection in every aspect of her management. Manchester United manager Marc Skinner has praised Bompastor for adding her own touches to the team of winners she inherited from Hayes, while Chelsea striker Catarina Macario believes Bompastor has made a strong impression in her first season.
