Arsenal boss Jonas Eidevall provides Frida Maanum update following collapse in Conti Cup final with return date pencilled in

The 24-year-old went down off the ball in second-half stoppage time during the final, where the Gunners went onto beat Chelsea 1-0 after extra time. The midfielder was stretchered off during the game and was later fitted with a device to monitor her heart; but tests found "no obvious cardiac causes" for her collapse. Now, Arsenal boss Eidevall says the Norwegian will be available to face Leicester City in the Women's Super League later this month.

According to journalist Tim Stillman, the Arsenal manager said Maanum won't be fit for their WSL clash with Bristol City on Sunday evening but will be available for the visit of Leicester on April 21.

The football community will have breathed a huge sigh of relief when Arsenal said Maanum was "stable and doing well" after this scare. If she can be back playing a matter of weeks after this worrying incident, that will be a huge boost to her and her team-mates.

Arsenal, who are third in the WSL and have an outside chance of pipping Manchester City and Chelsea to the title, have five more games left to play this season, one of which is against league leaders City on May 5.
