Renee Slegers, the head coach of Arsenal's women's team, has made a remarkable impact since replacing Jonas Eidevall. Despite initially not seeing herself as a leader, she has led the team to 15 wins in 18 games, moving them up to third in the Women's Super League and advancing in cup competitions. Slegers credits her growth and inspiration to figures like England manager Sarina Wiegman, emphasizing the evolution of leadership in football. Reflecting on her own career, she reveals doubts about her capabilities as a player after suffering a significant injury.
"I was always very interested in the game, of training methodology, of the tactics but I never saw myself as a leader."
"Sarina, I've seen her grow because in the year I got injured and stopped playing she was the assistant coach for the Netherlands."
