In this week’s Dispatch, Frimmy and Josh head to Sobha Realty Training Centre to sit down with Arsenal Women Manager Renée Slegers following the signing of her new contract.
Renée reflects on her unique journey here, from arriving at the club as a teenager to returning years later as manager, and explains why the club has always felt like home. She also looks back on last season’s Champions League triumph, the celebrations in Lisbon, and the challenge of keeping standards high as we compete on multiple fronts this season.
Our hosts also welcome Jodie Taylor into the studio. Our new Technical Director talks bridging football and strategy, working closely with Renée, and how her playing career across different countries has shaped her approach behind the scenes.
