Georgia Stanway Poised to Join Arsenal on Free Transfer After Bayern Exit

The move would bring a title-winning England midfielder back to the Women’s Super League.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets citing The Athletic report that only a medical in London remains before Georgia Stanway signs a long-term deal with Arsenal.
  • Bayern confirmed in January that she will leave at the end of the season when her contract expires, which sets up a free transfer rather than a fee.
  • Stanway has made 127 competitive appearances for Bayern with 31 goals and 29 assists, winning four league titles and two DFB-Pokals.
  • The Guardian has reported Arsenal tracked her for several years and targeted her as a desired signing before last summer’s Champions League triumph.
  • Bayern director Bianca Rech said Stanway "not only wrote history but also won hearts," a tribute that highlights how significant her departure is for the club and the Frauen-Bundesliga.
