"I'm delighted to have signed a new contract here, as I believe we have so much to achieve together - this season and in the years to come, Slegers told club media. I'd like to show my gratitude to our supporters for the incredible backing you give us, whether it's at Emirates Stadium, Meadow Park or on the road. We hear it, we see it and we feel it every day."
"Former player and Technical Services Manager Jodie Taylor has also been given a new role as Technical Director, working as a conduit between the analysis, technical and recruitment departments to close a gap between the areas. The club felt the disconnection was causing a bottleneck in operations. Though she has already been operating in a similar role for some time, Taylor will work closely with Slegers, operating as a point of contact on a day-to-day basis."
Renee Slegers has signed a long-term contract with Arsenal through 2029 after being permanently appointed head coach in January 2025 following an interim spell. The 36-year-old, an Arsenal academy graduate who joined in 2023 as an assistant after winning two Swedish titles with Rosengard, led an 11-game unbeaten run and guided the team to a second-place Women's Super League finish last season. The deal includes investment in Slegers' development and gives her oversight of three major summer transfer windows. Jodie Taylor moves into a Technical Director role to bridge analysis, technical and recruitment functions, with Clare Wheatley stepping back from those duties.
