Arsenal interim supervisor Renee Slegers says she will be available for at least five matches in the Women’s Super League.
Dutch Slegers took over on October 15 when former supervisor Jonas Eidevall resigned.
Slegers has since overseen a 4-1 win against Valerenga in the women’s Champions League and a 2-0 victory over West Ham in the WSL.
“During these five games I will remain as interim,” Slegers mentioned.
Asked if he could see himself playing the role long-term, he added: “I definitely see myself doing it at the moment.
“I love running with the women and the club to try to achieve success. I’ve done it before and I enjoy the role, but when you do it for a period of time, it becomes another. Now, I’m really fulfilling my role.”
New York City head coach Nick Cushing has emerged as a candidate to replace Eidevall, but is overseeing play-off games in the United States in November.
Cushing led Manchester City to the WSL title in 2016 over a seven-year period before moving to the United States in 2020.
Arsenal face a trip to Leigh Sports Village to face Manchester United in the WSL on Sunday before hosting Brighton next Friday; both teams are currently above them in the table.
They will also play Juventus twice in the Women’s Champions League this month, either side of an away game against north London rivals Tottenham in the WSL.
“We are competing in two competitions. If you want to get to it right away, we are going for five wins,” Slegers said.
“That’s what we’re trying to achieve. It’s as simple as that on paper. I understand that they are small margins, opposition to supremacy and that they will be fragile and demanding situations, but after all we believe we can achieve it.”
