Jonas Eidevall is to leave his role as head coach of Arsenal Women.
Arsenal have won just two of their last seven matches across all competitions and have picked up just five points from their opening four matches in the Women’s Super League (WSL). That run included a 5-2 Champions League loss at Bayern Munich last week.
Eidevall’s final game was the 2-1 home defeat by Chelsea on Saturday, where his side were booed by the Emirates Stadium crowd after going two goals down in the 16th minute.
Eidevall took charge of Arsenal in 2021, replacing Joe Montemurro. The 41-year-old won the League Cup in 2023 and 2024 but was unable to dislodge Chelsea as the top team in England, with the west London side winning the title in each of his three seasons in charge.
Arsenal have finished as runners-up in the last two WSL campaigns and Eidevall signed a three-year contract in October 2023.
Eidevall had previously spent over a decade coaching in his native Sweden, including two seasons in charge at men’s club Lunds BK and two spells in charge of FC Rosengard.
He guided Rosengard to three league titles and the Swedish Cup trophy in 2018, while he also had a stint as assistant manager to Henrik Larsson at men’s side Helsingborgs IF.
Arsenal are next in action at home to Norwegian side Valerenga in the Champions League on Wednesday before returning to WSL action with a trip to West Ham United on Sunday.
