A home fit for the Champions of Europe! Arsenal make Emirates Stadium decision ahead of new Women's Super League season

After hosting nine WSL matches across the 2024/25 season, Arsenal Women will now play two extra games at the Emirates for the upcoming campaign. The club add that domestic cup games, including the FA Cup and League Cup, will be played at the Mangata Pay UK Stadium in Borehamwood.

Arsenal head coach, Renee Slegers, said this was "just the beginning" for the Gunners, who are embarking on a "special journey".

She told the club's website: “I'm so proud of the journey we've been on with our supporters this season. From Boreham Wood to the Emirates, on the road to every WSL and European destination we visited, and of course all the way to Lisbon, they've shown up and we've fuelled each other to an historic season for our club. For us, this is just the beginning, and bringing every WSL match to the Emirates is another step for more supporters to be part of this special journey. We’ll come back next season, with fire in our hearts, more determined, more ambitious, and more together than ever."

This comes a couple of weeks after Arsenal won the Champions League, beating all-conquering Barcelona in the final in Lisbon - as the club continues to go from strength to strength. The Gunners state more than 415,000 tickets were sold across this season, up 20 per cent on the previous campaign. This is all part of the north London team's growth.

Arsenal, who hold the top four record attendances in the WSL, will hope to break their record attendance of 60,160 (set last February against Manchester United) going into the new season in 2025/26.
