Jonas Eidevall has been confirmed as the new Arsenal Women’s head coach, the club has announced.
The 38-year old will join from Swedish club Rosengard, where he served as both assistant coach and head coach. He won back-to-back titles at the club in 2013 and 2014.
He also reached the quarter-finals of the Women’s Champions League last season.
The announcement comes after previous manager Joe Montemurro left the London club after four years in charge.
Mr. Eidevall said: “I feel honoured to be taking this role. Arsenal have a rich history, more successful than any other women’s team in England.”
“I want to add to these honours. It’s super important that we win, and we will be very ambitious about that, but it’s even more important that we live the values and defend the club badge on a day-to-day basis. I cannot wait to do that at Arsenal.”
Eidevall began his coaching career as a 23-year-old with Lunds BK, becoming head coach three-and-a-half years later and guiding the side to the Swedish second tier title.
He then joined Rosengard and won a number of competitive trophies for the club over two spells.
Arsenal chief executive, Vinai Venkatesham, said: “Jonas was the standout candidate of everybody that we considered for this role and we think he’s going to be a great fit to be the head coach of Arsenal Women”.
“It was important that we found the right person to represent our club, both on the pitch and off the pitch”.
