The club have been scaling up their usage of the Emirates for the women’s team in recent seasons, playing nine of their 11 WSL home fixtures in N5 Last season.

Richard Garlick, Arsenal Managing Director, said: ‘Today’s announcement is another bold step forward. It’s an opportunity to create a special home for our team and allow more opportunities for our community, and a new generation of supporters to watch the European champions. It’s the start of another chapter in the story of our women’s team just two weeks on from us lifting the Champions League trophy with our community here in Islington. We keep moving forward together, and we’ll continue to fuel and inspire each other.’

Clare Wheatley, Director of Women’s Football, said: ‘Our players and staff know what it means to walk out in front of a packed Emirates Stadium. It brings a sense of pride and belonging to all of us. It fuels a relentless drive to win and is a crucial part of how we create the best conditions for our women’s team to succeed. We felt that winning connection all season, and to share in a Champions League win with our supporters in north London after returning from Lisbon inspired us all to push on.’

Renée Slegers, Head Coach of Arsenal Women, said: ‘I’m so proud of the journey we’ve been on with our supporters this season. From Boreham Wood to the Emirates, on the road to every WSL and European destination we visited, and of course all the way to Lisbon, they’ve shown up and we’ve fuelled each other to an historic season for our club. For us, this is just the beginning, and bringing every WSL match to the Emirates is another step for more supporters to be part of this special journey. We’ll come back next season, with fire in our hearts, more determined, more ambitious, and more together than ever.’

This allows more people than ever to experience a WSL matchday and help Arsenal to build on the success we achieved in Lisbon. We are also excited that Meadow Park will still be used for cup games.
