Paul Green, the former head of women's football at Chelsea, reflects on his remarkable 13-year tenure with the club, during which he helped secure 19 major trophies. After leaving Chelsea amid reports of unrest in February, Green acknowledged that it was only after his departure that he truly appreciated the extent of his success, with many of his medals now framed rather than stored under his bed.

Green's collaboration with ex-manager Emma Hayes proved to be a winning formula, resulting in six consecutive Women's Super League titles, culminating in 2025 under current manager Sonia Bompastor. He expressed pride in having left Chelsea in a stronger position than when he joined, emphasizing the unique achievements of the team:

• Reached the Women's Champions League final in 2021
• Established Chelsea as a dominant force in the WSL.

Now, as the chief football officer at Bay FC, Green is excited about the future. After taking a seven-month break from football, he is eager to leverage his extensive experience in the transfer market to enhance the team's performance, currently sitting third from the bottom in the National Women's Soccer League. Green aims to improve the roster and infrastructure, stating, "We need to try and improve the roster immediately."

Looking ahead, Green sees parallels between his new role and his early days at Chelsea, noting, "The potential there of building something really special is what I'm looking forward to." Bay FC is set to move into new training facilities next year, and Green is committed to acting in the transfer window to strengthen the squad.
