Scott Wiseman coaches both Gibraltar national football teams

Scott Wiseman is currently managing both the men's and women's national football teams of Gibraltar. At 39 years old, he took charge of the women’s team in 2023 and has recently begun coaching the men’s team as an interim manager. Wiseman's coaching journey has been busy. He led the women’s team in their first competitive international matches during the 2024-25 Nations League. He stepped in as men’s coach this month after Julio Cesar Ribas left the role for personal reasons. Wiseman’s schedule includes the men's World Cup qualifying matches and the women’s Nations League fixtures. The men's team will play against Montenegro and the Czech Republic on March 22 and 25. Meanwhile, the women are set to face Slovakia and the Faroe Islands in early April. Wiseman is excited about the opportunity, viewing it as a privilege to coach both teams. He has a strong coaching background, having worked with Gibraltar's youth teams before moving up to senior management. Wiseman has highlighted the positive progress made by the women’s team, despite early losses in their Nations League matches. He believes those matches prepared them well for their next games. For the men's team, Wiseman sees this World Cup qualifying campaign as a stepping stone towards future successes. He has selected a young squad, aiming to build their international experience. Wiseman is uncertain about his long-term future as men’s coach, as discussions about the role have not taken place yet. He remains focused on the upcoming matches.
