Jonas Eidevall

Jonas Benjamin Eidevall (born 28 January 1983) is a Swedish professional football coach who is the head coach of San Diego Wave FC of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL). He was the head coach of Women's Super League club Arsenal from 2021 to 2024, where he won back-to-back FA Women's League Cups. He was the head coach of Swedish club FC Rosengård from 2013 to 2014 and 2018 to 2021, winning three Damallsvenskan titles and one Swedish Cup.

Eidevall began his coaching career at the age of 23, as an assistant coach for Division 2 side Lunds BK in Skåne.[citation needed] After three and a half years as an assistant, he was named the club's coach. In 2009, he led the club to a first place finish in Division 2 and promotion to Ettan Fotboll.[citation needed]

In 2012, he left Lund to join Damallsvenskan side FC Rosengård as an assistant manager.[citation needed] In 2013, he took over as Rosengård's head coach. He led the side to back-to-back first place finishes in 2013 and 2014.[citation needed]

He left Rosengård in 2014 to join Danish 1st Division side Lyngby Boldklub as an assistant manager, serving under Jack Majgaard Jensen.[citation needed]

He left Rosengård in 2016 to join Superettan side Helsingborgs IF as an assistant manager, serving under Henrik Larsson.[citation needed]

After one year at Helsingborgs, he returned to Rosengård. He led the club to a Svenska Cupen Damer victory in 2018 and another league title in 2019.[citation needed] In 2019, he also led Rosengård to the Champions League quarter-finals.

In June 2021, Eidevall was named head coach for FA WSL side Arsenal, replacing Joe Montemurro. Arsenal conducted a thorough recruitment process in which Eidevall was the unanimous choice from everybody involved in the process. Arsenal's CEO Vinai Venkatesham said that "he was the standout candidate for everybody that we considered for this role". In his first season at Arsenal, Eidevall guided the team to 2nd place in the FA WSL and to a quarter-final appearance in UEFA Women's Champions League, where Arsenal was eliminated by VfL Wolfsburg. He extended his contract with club at the end of the season in a joint signing session with Mikel Arteta.

The following year, Arsenal finished at 3rd place in FA WSL and reached the Semi-finals in UEFA Women's Champions League after winning their group ahead of reigning champions Olympique Lyonnais and knocking-out FC Bayern Munich in the Quarter-finals. The semi-final against VfL Wolfsburg went to extra time where the German team scored the only goal. Eidevall won his first trophy with the club, beating Chelsea 3–1 at Selhurst Park in the final of the FA Women's League Cup.
