Australia international Caitlin Foord is in advanced discussions over signing a new deal with Arsenal.

The 31-year-old, who joined from Portland Thorns in 2020 is currently on a contract that is set to expire in June.

However, following the departure of England international Beth Mead, the club have been in negotiations with Foord to ensure they keep her.

Foord was part of the squad who won the Champions League last season and she added a Champions Cup medal this season.

The forward also won back-to-back League Cup titles in 2023 and 2024 with Arsenal.

She has made over 200 appearances for the Gunners, scoring 54 goals, including two in 12 Women's Super League starts this season.
