Renee Slegers: Arsenal head coach signs new three-year deal

Renee Slegers, aged 36, signed a three-and-a-half-year deal after leading Arsenal Women to Champions League success and a WSL runner-up finish last season.

  • Renee Slegers, Arsenal Women head coach, has signed a new three-and-a-half-year deal after months of discussions.
  • After impressing in a three-month interim spell, Renee Slegers earned the permanent head coach role last year and led Arsenal to Champions League victory over Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, OL Lyonnes, and Barcelona.
  • Arsenal have promoted Jodie Taylor to technical director, making her the club's first in this role, and she will work closely with Renee Slegers on recruitment and technology.
  • With the new deal, Renee Slegers gains authority over recruitment as Arsenal plans a long-term rebuild, with six players over 30, rising to eight by season's end.
  • Arsenal's league position—third and eight points adrift—adds pressure on results as Slegers faces criticism this season, while club officials stress the next months are crucial for clarity and transfers.
