Arsenal Women have been busy in the summer transfer window bringing in a number of players as well as allowing a fair few to leave.

The Gunners are looking to build on last season's second place finish as they search for a record-extending 16th English top flight title and their first since the 2018/19 campaign.

Renée Slegers leads her side into the new term with a trip to face Brighton on 6 September, but with the transfer window remaining open until two days before the season opener, allowing Arsenal plenty of time to add to the business they have already done.

Arsenal have made a number of additions to their side this summer with Georgia Stanway the notable newcomer standing out from the rest.

The 93-cap England international joined from Bayern Munich following a four-year spell in Germany and will return to the Women's Super League, having already spent time in the top flight with Manchester City, where she made 172 appearances.

Ona Batlle and Géraldine Reuteler are among the others who have followed Stanway to North London to be part of Slegers' setup for the 2026/27 season.

This summer saw Beth Mead bring an end to her nine-year spell in North London to head to Manchester City, joining up with Vivianne Miedema, who left the Gunners two years ago.

Goalkeeper Manuela Zinsberger also departed the club after seven seasons, joining Borussia Dortmund and Victoria Pelova called it a day in the red half of North London to cross the divide and join arch-rivals Tottenham.


Will Arsenal sign again this summer?

There are no links with players currently being reported, but there is a possibility that Arsenal will dive back into the transfer market before the window closes on 4 September.


Will there be more departures before the window closes?

Like incomings, there is no clear indication that any more players will leave the Gunners before the window's closure, but with just under a week to go, there is always the chance of some departures being sanctioned.


When does Arsenal Women's season start?

Arsenal Women kick their season off with a trip Brighton on 6 September before welcoming Crystal Palace for their first home game a week later. The Gunners are set to play a number of their home matches at the Emirates Stadium this campaign, with selected clashes taking place at Meadow Park.
