Baroness Sue Campbell will retire from her role as director of women’s football with the Football Association (FA) in 2024. 

The 74-year-old has been in her position since 2016 and has overseen a multitude of changes in the women’s game. 

During her time, Campbell has contributed to the success of England’s women teams, who won Euro 2022 and reached the Women’s World Cup final in August this year.
