ENGLAND boss Sarina Wiegman’s assistant Arjan Veurink will be replaced by Janneke Bijl and Arvid Smit after this summer’s Euros.

It was announced last month that Veurink, Wiegman’s number two as the Lionesses won the Euros in 2022 and were World Cup runners-up a year later, would be leaving the role following July’s tournament in Switzerland to become Netherlands head coach.

Bijl and Smit have been part of the Netherlands coaching staff since 2023 and 2019 respectively.
