Renée Slegers

Renée Josiena Anna Slegers (Dutch: [rəˈneː joːˈsinaː ˈʔɑnaː ˈsleːɣərs]; born 5 February 1989) is a Dutch football coach and former player, who is currently the head coach of Women's Super League club Arsenal. Slegers played as a midfielder, representing Willem II, as well as Swedish Damallsvenskan clubs Djurgårdens IF and Linköping FC. She won 55 caps for the Netherlands women's national football team and appeared at UEFA Women's Euro 2013. After her retirement, Slegers began coaching in Sweden and spent two seasons as head coach of FC Rosengård. She then joined Arsenal in September 2023, serving as assistant coach under Jonas Eidevall, and became the interim coach in October 2024, following Eidevall's resignation. In January 2025, Slegers was permanently named head coach of Arsenal, signing a contract until the end of the 2025–26 season. Five months after that, she guided them into the 2024–25 UEFA Women's Champions League trophy.
