Career
editBorn in Liverpool in 1990 to a Chinese father and English mother, Martin Ho started his footballing career as an academy player for Everton F.C., but soon pivoted to a coaching role.[1] From 2015 to 2018 he worked as assistant manager to Andy Spence at Everton's women's team.[2] Ho then worked as the head coach of Liverpool F.C. Women's U21 team, before being given the role as assistant manager at Manchester United W.F.C. in 2020.
In 2023 Toppserien club SK Brann hired Ho as their head coach, replacing Olli Harder.[3] While unable to salvage a disappointing domestic season, Ho achieved success in the 2023–24 UEFA Women's Champions League, leading the team to 2nd in the group stages before going out to eventual champions Barcelona in the quarter-finals.
