Arjan Veurink will leave his role as England assistant coach after the upcoming Women's Euros to embark on a "wonderful new adventure" in charge of his native Netherlands.
The 38-year-old has worked alongside Sarina Wiegman since 2017, when they led the Dutch to glory in the European Championship, before following her into her role in charge of England in 2021.
Under their management, the Lionesses were crowned European champions the following year, before reaching the 2023 World Cup final.
However, Wiegman and Veurink will part ways following the conclusion of this year's Euros, with the latter set to replace current Dutch boss Andries Jonker.
We can confirm that Arjan Veurink will depart The @FA following #WEURO2025 and will take on the role of Netherlands women's head coach.

"This is not only a great challenge and a wonderful new adventure, it also feels like a logical next step in my career," Veurink said.
"I have never made a secret of the fact that I once wanted to be the person in charge of the Dutch national team.
"With more than eight years of experience at the highest level as Sarina Wiegman's right-hand man, first with the Netherlands and now in England, I am ready to stand on my own two feet.
"The fact that this opportunity is now occurring in the Netherlands makes it extra special. I will now do everything I can to end the coming months in England in style."
