Dwight Lodeweges (born 26 October 1957) is a Canadian–born Dutch football coach and former professional player. He is currently one of the assistant managers of the Netherlands national team. In 2020 – after Ronald Koeman left to join FC Barcelona – he was caretaker manager for two matches. On 29 June 2021 Frank de Boer resigned as coach and Lodeweges again took over on an interim basis until a new head coach was appointed.

Managerial career

After the resignation of Huub Stevens, Lodeweges was named PSV Eindhoven's head coach. He finished the season, but then left to become head coach for NEC Nijmegen,[2] On 9 April 2009, he signed on for two years[3] but was dismissed from the role of manager at NEC Nijmegen after the defeat 4–0 of Sunday, against PSV Eindhoven.[4]

On 9 March 2010, he was named as the new head coach of FC Edmonton.[5] He left the club before its first competitive match and signed to coach JEF United Chiba of J2 League on 3 December 2010.[6]

In 2013, he signed with SC Cambuur in the Dutch premier division. He left mid-season in 2014 when it became known he had signed with their arch-rivals SC Heerenveen for the next season. With Heerenveen he became seventh in the 2014–15 season. The start of the 2015–16 season was bad, with Heerenveen at the bottom of the table. In October 2015 he was replaced.
