Arsenal women have signed England midfielder Georgia Stanway from Bayern Munich.
The 27-year-old won eight trophies across a four-year spell in the Bundesliga after joining from Manchester City in 2022.
She makes the move to Arsenal on a free transfer after deciding in mid-season to leave Bayern at the end of her contract.
"It's an unbelievable feeling and I'm so proud to be joining Arsenal," Stanway said.
"This is a massive club that is driving the women's game forward to new levels and I want to be a part of it. I want to win trophies and grow as a player, and this is the right place to do that with the backing of an incredible fanbase."
Stanway won the WSL title, three FA Cups and three League Cups with City before heading to Bavaria.
At international level, Stanway has scored 33 goals in 93 games for England and played an integral role in both of the Lionesses' historic Women's European Championship triumphs, in 2022 and 2025.
Arsenal coach Renee Slegers said: "Georgia is a brilliant midfielder and we're thrilled that she is an Arsenal player.
"She will add a new dimension to our midfield, bringing experience and adding to our winning mentality. We look forward to getting down to work in pre-season [with] a big campaign ahead."
