Arsenal left-back Steph Catley has signed a new contract with the club.
The Australia international joined the Gunners in 2020 and has been a regular under current head coach Jonas Eidevall.
Catley has made 74 appearances for Arsenal and the club’s head of women’s football Clare Wheatley has hailed her as one of the best in the world at her position.
The 29-year-old, who has more than 100 caps for Australia and is due to represent her country at this summer’s World Cup on home soil, said it was an easy decision to pen fresh terms.
“It feels amazing – this feels like home,” said Catley. “I’ve made some incredible friendships here and when the offer came around I knew exactly what I wanted to do and exactly where I wanted to be.
“I’ve never been happier playing football and I feel like this team is very special – we’re building something special and in the future we’re capable of achieving anything.”
Eidevall added: “I’m delighted Steph has signed a new contract with us. Steph is one of the best defenders in the game and brings so much to this group both on and off the pitch.
“She’s a model professional and has delivered time and again when called upon throughout my time here, so we’re all pleased to say Steph will continue to be a part of Arsenal for years to come.”
