Arsenal Women have confirmed Kim Little has signed a new contract with the club.
The club captain will miss the rest of this season with a hamstring injury, but is expected to return ahead of the 2023-24 season.
First joining Arsenal in 2008, the 32-year-old’s influence on the side has grown year-on-year and she now sits seventh in the club’s all-time appearances charts.
“I’m delighted to sign a new contract at Arsenal,” Little, who was awarded an MBE for services to football in the 2023 New Years Honours List, said. “Thinking back to when I first joined at the age of 17, I’m so proud of the progress that we have made together.
“Arsenal has been such an important part of my life and over time this club has become my home. It continues to be a privilege to represent Arsenal and I’m still so motivated to move this club forward and to be a part of its success.”
Head coach Jonas Eidevall added: “Kim is a world-class player and an exemplary professional. Her contribution here over many years has been outstanding and we are so pleased that she will continue to represent Arsenal for years to come.
“On and off the pitch, Kim is such an important part of what we are trying to achieve here at Arsenal Football Club so we are all delighted with this news.”
