Renée: “Arsenal has always been special to me”

Words don’t do justice the importance of Arsenal to Renée Slegers, who recently signed a contract extension as our women’s head coach.

Speaking in her pre-Manchester United press conference at the Sobha Realty Training Centre, she tried to get across just how much this club means to her.

“When you ask the question I get goosebumps,” she said. :Because when I was a young girl there was not much to dream about. There was not much to relate to when I was young, and I've never had these genetics in myself to really be a fan of a club.
