Arsenal have signed the Netherlands midfielder Victoria Pelova from Ajax. The 23-year-old has been described by her new manager, Jonas Eidevall, as “one of the most exciting young players in the game” and takes the place in the squad of Jordan Nobbs, who has joined Aston Villa.
Pelova has 31 caps and was a member of the Netherlands squad that reached the final of the 2019 Women’s World Cup. She was also selected for the Tokyo Olympics and for last year’s European Championship.
