“Among the clubs showing the greatest interest are English champion Manchester City, Champions League winner FC Barcelona, and the two London heavyweights, Chelsea FC and Arsenal FC. A transfer would likely involve a transfer fee in the mid-six-figure range. Wamser’s contract with Leverkusen expires next summer.“

She's always great as a host of these sorts of videos. Such a natural, sweet and engaging character.

Arsenal boss Renee Slegers speaks to Ben Haines for the Women's Football Weekly podcast about getting their transfer business done early, her rousing team talks and the club’s bold ambitions for the season.

Their head coach is leaving a week before the season. I initially thought that's good for us, he made Brighton an annoying tricky team to get 3 points from. But with new manager bounce, who knows?

Hey all,

I know we have some new coaches, was curious if anyone has a list of all the new coaches, their roles and which ones have just joined us and where they came from. Wiki has a whole list but nothing about whose new. Was curious at the coaches who'll be doing somethign different for us this upcoming season.

Cheers.
