I'd say some in the playing group 'got her'. Doesn't seem like she has yet fully resigned as head coach, just stood herself down for the Olympics.
Waiting for some of the older players to retire post Olympics? "it would not be the right time for her to return (now)"
Or digging her toes in to make sure she gets the full severance package she is due, with 3 years still to go on her contract? Which if so, she is fully entitled to do.
Jitka Klimková, in consultation with New Zealand Football, has opted to stand down from her role as head coach of the Ford Football Ferns for the upcoming Paris 2024 Summer Olympics.
The decision comes following conclusion of an independent workplace employment investigation which cleared Klimková to lead the team at Paris 2024, however, in consultation with New Zealand Football, Klimková has taken the view that due to concerns in relation to the team environment, her wellbeing, and a restorative process having not been completed, it would not be the right time for her to return.
In her absence, assistant coach Michael Mayne will act as head coach for the games and will be bringing in additional support staff to ensure the team are equipped to perform on the global stage.
