According to Football London on Friday, July 3, 2026, Arsenal have completed the signing of England midfielder Georgia Stanway from Bayern Munich as part of their preparations for the 2026/27 season.
The transfer comes as Arsenal seek to build on last season’s Premier League title while strengthening their women’s team, which is aiming to end an eight-year wait for the Women’s Super League title. The club has also begun reinforcing its academy and senior squad ahead of the new campaign.
Stanway joins after four successful seasons at Bayern Munich, where she won multiple trophies and established herself as one of the Bundesliga’s leading midfielders while gaining regular UEFA Women’s Champions League experience.
The 26-year-old said she was excited to return to England and described Arsenal as a club whose ambitions matched her own. She expressed her desire to win major trophies and continue her development.
Head coach Renée Slegers praised Stanway’s experience, versatility and winning mentality, saying her international pedigree and leadership will strengthen Arsenal’s pursuit of domestic and European honours.
