Arsenal have announced 28-year old has OFFICIALLY signed deal with club
Arsenal have announced that goalkeeper Manuela Zinsberger has signed a new contract with the club.
The Austria international also took home the 2021-22 Women’s Super League Golden Glove with a division-high 13 clean sheets – three more than Mary Earps – as ARSENAL finished one point behind champions Chelsea.
“I’m so happy to have signed a new contract with this club,” Zinsberger told the official Arsenal website after committing her future to the club.
“I’m so motivated to continue to develop myself as a goalkeeper but also grow as a person – and with the progression that’s taken place here on and off the pitch since I joined, I know this is the right place for me to do that.
“When I step out onto the pitch, hearing the crowd cheering us on, it’s a feeling I can’t describe. The passion our supporters bring lifts us up and together we can go so far.”
“We can achieve anything with everyone behind us.”

“She deserves this new contract and I know she shares the ambitions we have here. We want to compete for every title we can and Manu will play a big role in us achieving that.”
