Arjan Veurink, assistant coach to Sarina Wiegman, will leave the England women’s team after July’s European Championship to become the head coach of Netherlands women’s national side. The 38-year-old will succeed Andries Jonker, who has been in charge since 2022. Veurink has a deal until the end of the 2029 Euros.
Veurink, a former FC Twente head coach, has been Wiegman’s No 2 for eight years since they teamed up for their native Netherlands’ Euros triumph in 2017 and their run to 2019’s World Cup final, and he moved with her to coach England in 2021. They guided England to their first major women’s silverware in 2022 and to 2023’s World Cup final.
