Chelsea Women manager Emma Hayes has named on the shortlist for The Best FIFA Women's Coach of the Year award

 Hayes has been named on a 10-person shortlist after guiding the Blues to both WSL 1 and FA Cup glory last season.

Hayes’s side were outstanding over the course of the campaign and went through the league season unbeaten, finishing six points clear of closest challengers Manchester City.

The FA Cup was secured courtesy of a 3-1 win over Arsenal at Wembley as the Blues produced a dominant display against their London club rivals.

The shortlisted candidates were selected by a panel of football experts, with fans now also able to cast their vote until Friday August 10.

The winners will be announced at FIFA's official awards ceremony in London on Monday September 24.
