Arsenal Women have completed the signing of Lina Hurtig from Juventus. The Swedish forward becomes just their second arrival of the summer after goalkeeper Kaylan Marckese came in earlier in the window.
The Gunners had been looking to add a versatile forward to the squad after Nikita Parris left to join Manchester United. The England international only joined Arsenal herself last summer, but struggled to make too much of an impact as she attempted to adapt to Jonas Eidevall's playing style.
Eidevall had been keen to bring in someone who adds to his vast wealth of attacking options that includes Ballon d'Or nominees Beth Mead and Vivianne Miedema. And now he has got the player he was after in Hurtig who joins from Juventus where she has been playing under former Arsenal coach Joe Montemuro.
