Kasper Klarskov Nielsen was appointed as the women's team's first head coach upon its establishment in 2024. Since then, the team secured promotion to the B-League in its debut season and subsequently to the A-League—a progression that has laid a solid sporting foundation for the team's future.
"Kasper has played a pivotal role in building our women's team from its very inception into a squad that is now taking its first steps in the A-League. He has taken us a long way, and we owe him a great debt of gratitude for his dedicated efforts," says Henrik Mogelmose, Chairman of the Board of FC Copenhagen women's team.
The decision to part ways stems from the recognition that the women's team's continued development requires new resources and qualifications to take the next steps.
"We have come a long way in a short time and are now playing in the top division. This places new demands on sporting leadership, and different competencies are needed to take the next steps in developing and consolidating the team in the A-League. However, this should not overshadow the recognition Kasper deserves for the work he has put into the team," says Henrik Mogelmose.
