Arsenal have signed highly-rated Ajax midfielder Victoria Pelova on a permanent deal.
Pelova, 23, has only played in the Vrouwen Eredivisie in her career to date but will be expected to help Arsenal's push for silverware in the second half of the season. The WSL title contenders have moved swiftly in the transfer market after letting Jordan Nobbs go to Aston Villa.
The talented Dutch playmaker has won 35 caps for her native Netherlands and was part of the Dutch squad who reached the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup final. She also impressed on English soil at the European Championships last summer, scoring against Switzerland at Bramall Lane and was believed to be the subject of interest from Real Madrid and Wolfsburg.
