Arsenal, bu hafta sonu Lyon ile oynayacağı Kadınlar Şampiyonlar Ligi yarı finalinin ilk maçında Beth Mead ve Steph Catley'den yoksun olacak; Catley'nin yokluğu, kısa süre önce kadroya dönen Leah Williamson'ın fiziksel durumuna daha fazla dikkat çekiyor. İngiltere milli takım kaptanı, geçen hafta milli takımda görev yaparken bir aydan uzun bir süre sonra ilk kez sahaya çıktı; bu zamanlamanın, Gunners'ın Avrupa şampiyonluğunu savunması açısından hayati öneme sahip olabileceği düşünülüyor.
Geçen yıl Arsenal, Barcelona'yı şaşkına çevirerek Kadınlar Şampiyonlar Ligi'ni kazandığında, övgüyü hak eden pek çok isim vardı. İster geçici olarak göreve gelen ve daha sonra kadrolu olan teknik direktör Renee Slegers'in yönettiği olağanüstü dönüş, ister Alessia Russo'nun golcü performansı, ister orta sahadaki Kim Little'ın zamansız klası olsun, bu başarının ardında pek çok neden yatıyordu. Ancak Mariona Caldentey'in etkisinden özellikle etkilenmemek zordu.
Aitana Bonmati, son üç Ballon d'Or Feminin ödülünün hepsini kazandı; ancak 2026'da bu ödül başka birine gidecek. Kadın futbolunun en iyi oyuncusu olduğunu bir kez daha kanıtlayacak olan, iki kez bu ödülü kazanan ve Barcelona'nın bir diğer yıldızı Alexia Putellas mı olacak? Yoksa Ekim ayında Paris'te Altın Top ödülü dağıtıldığında, kazananlar listesinde yeni bir isim mi yer alacak?
Haberlere göre Barcelona, yıldız savunma oyuncusu Ona Batlle'yi bedelsiz transferle Arsenal'e kaptırmaya "çok yakın"; iki kez Ballon d'Or ödülünü kazanan Alexia Putellas ile kilit stoper Mapi Leon'un geleceğine dair spekülasyonlar da, ikilinin Katalonya'daki mevcut sözleşmelerinin sona ermesine yaklaşmasıyla birlikte giderek artıyor. Yeni yükselen Kadınlar Süper Ligi takımı, yaz transfer döneminde ses getirmek isteyen London City Lionesses, her iki oyuncuya da ilgi gösterdi.
