The length of her contract with the Gunners, who finished third in the WSL this season, has not been publicly disclosed by the club.

“This is a place where I can develop and learn from the players around me and take steps both on and off the pitch. 

“We’ve had some really special moments this season and the connection with our supporters has been fantastic, so I can’t wait to see what we can achieve together.”

In a season in which Arsenal struggled with injuries to key players including Kim Little, Beth Mead and Vivianne Miedema, Maanum has become a formidable part of attack

This includes netting 14 times in 32 WSL and Women’s Champions League appearances 

Her goals include a stunning top corner finish in Arsenal’s 2-0 second-leg Champions League quarter-final defeat of Bayern Munich at the Emirates in March. 

Maanum’s effort saw her nominated for PFA and Barclays Player of the Season awards with the midfielder named Arsenal Women’s Supporters’ Club outstanding performer.
