  WHAT HAPPENED?

  The Women's Super League transfer window opened on January 1 and several clubs have been active already, with Everton recruiting two new faces, Tottenham landing Denmark international Olivia Holdt and Manchester City signing defender Rebecca Knaak, following a knee injury to star centre-back Alex Greenwood. Despite still being without a permanent head coach, and instead under the interim management of Renee Slegers, it appears Arsenal are keen to join that trio in adding to their squad this month.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  According to , the Gunners are looking to sign a winger this month and 'one potential target is rumoured to be ready to make the move from the NWSL', the top league in the United States. The report says that arrival is expected to be the only one at Arsenal this month, with it likely to be a 'one in, one out' window. The exit will be that of Kathrine Kuhl, the talented young Denmark midfielder who has struggled to make her mark at the club since signing in January 2023. She had a good loan spell at Everton last season and is heavily linked with a return to the Toffees, with reporting last month that the club was preparing a bid in the region of £100,000.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  News of another winger potentially joining the team has surprised many Arsenal fans, given the squad is already well stocked in those areas. Beth Mead, Caitlin Foord and Lina Hurtig are all natural wide players, with Mariona Caldentey also operating out there and Katie McCabe capable of doing so when needed. However, the recruitment of another player in this position would pave the way for Caldentey to be deployed more often in the central role that she has excelled in in recent outings.
