But the 41-year-old has stepped down after a difficult start to the season which has seen them win just one of their first four matches of the Women’s Super League season, and included a 5-2 Women’s Champions League drubbing by Bayern Munich.

“We’d like to say a huge thank you to Jonas for his hard work and dedication to Arsenal Football Club over the past three years,” said director of women’s football Clare Wheatley.

“Jonas has brought us back-to-back trophies in the last two seasons, together with many memorable moments on the pitch.

“We wish Jonas and his family the best of health, happiness and success for the future.

“We have full confidence in Renée to take responsibility for the team in the interim period.”

First-team assistant coach Renée Slegers will take temporary charge during the search for Eidevall’s permanent successor.
