There is fashion in football, with most players showcasing their dress sense on social media, but managers have the luxury of dripping on the touchline during games.

Most managers opt for club-branded tracksuits or traditional suits, while some others take it a notch higher with dresses that make them the centre of attraction.

Sports Brief looks at the best five dressed managers of 2023.

Best dressed managers of 2023

1. Mathias Jaissle

Al-Ahli manager Mathias Jaissle is one of the best dressed of 2023. He left RB Salzburg a day before the start of the season and joined Al-Ahli. The 35-year-old dazzled with different outfits, so much that Salzburg compiled some of his top outfits.

2. Julian Nagelsmann

The former Bayern Munich boss is one of the youngest coaches in the world, which makes his fashion taste unsurprising. He is currently the German national team manager, replacing Hansi Flick.

3. Pep Guardiola

He is one of the highest-paid managers in the world, which makes it unsurprising that he is investing in clothes to drip. In 2022, he told Sky Sports his wife Cristina Serra selects his outfits.

4. Scott Parker

Parker began his managerial career with Fulham in 2019 and has also managed AFC Bournemouth and Club Brugge. He is currently without a job. His coaching career hasn’t had much glitter, but his outfits on the touchline speak.

5. Emma Hayes

The best female manager on the planet and one of the most fashioned ones. Hayes is vocal on the touchline, but her outfit also speaks. She wears different Nike sneakers that fans believe she has a special room in her house for it.

Honourable mentions: Marc Skinner, Luis Enrique, Manuel Pellegrini, Stefano Pioli.
