Arsenal Women coach Jonas Eidevall quits less than a month into the new season

Arsenal Women manr Jonas Eidevall quit on Tuesday, less than a month into new season.

English team has won just one of its first four matches in Women's Super League and lost its opening game in Champions League group st, 5-2 at Bayern Munich.

Eidevall joined in June 2021 from FC Rosengard in his native Sweden and led Arsenal to two League Cup titles as well as Champions League semifinals in 2022-23 season. It was first time in 10 years Arsenal reached that st in Europe's top club competition.

His last game in charge was a 2-1 home loss to Chelsea in Super League on Saturday.

Arsenal said Eidevall resigned with immediate effect.

“We have great respect for dedication and commitment he showed to our women’s first team," Arsenal sporting director Edu Gaspar said of Eidevall, “and recognize role he has played in growth and development of Arsenal Women.”

Assistant coach Renée Slegers will take charge of team on an interim basis, starting with home match against Vålerenga in Champions League on Wednesday.
