Will Still has seemingly confirmed he is dating Sky Sports reporter Emma Saunders.

Still is a rising star in management and was heavily linked with a move to an English club this summer. Instead, he has decided to remain in France with Ligue 1 side Lens, having left Reims at the end of last season.

But with roughly two months until the new campaign gets underway, Still has opted to take some time away from his duties and travelled to Frankfurt to watch England's draw with Denmark at Euro 2024.

Still was joined by Saunders, with the Lens boss posting an image of the duo on his Instagram story. In the photo, which Saunders took, Still is standing behind the reporter and hugging her, with their faces touching.

Still also posted on Instagram, with one picture a selfie of him and Saunders and another showing them hugging. It is not known how long the couple have been dating or how long they will remain in Germany.

When Still does get back to his day job, he will be tasked with building on a solid season for Lens last year. They finished seventh in Ligue 1, qualifying for the play-off round of the Europa Conference League.

But following the end of the campaign, they saw manager Franck Haise move to rivals Nice. After a search, Still was selected as the top candidate, with the young boss having also spoken to Sunderland about their manager's job.

He snubbed a move to the Black Cats though and will instead remain in France, having signed a three-year deal. Still joins Lens from Reims, where he became the youngest manager in Europe's top five leagues when he was appointed aged 30 in October 2022.

He left Reims at the end of the campaign just gone following a poor run of results to end the season. Lens have been quick to snap him up, in the hopes that he can lead them into the top six.

“We are delighted with the arrival of Will Still at the Racing Club de Lens. Will was our top priority to take up the position of coach and start the new cycle that is opening at the club," Lens general director Pierre Dréossi said.

"Will is not only a promising coach who has broken records for precociousness, he is a unifying personality obsessed with winning. A true enthusiast, conqueror and fine tactician, Will Still left his mark on the Stade de Reims.

"He obtained convincing results, notably a historic series of 19 matches without defeat. We are happy to welcome Will, his leadership and his communicative energy to La Gaillette and Bollaert-Delelis."
