 Chloe Kelly Signs Five-Year Deal with Arsenal as She Targets More Silverware Ahead of England’s Euros Title Defence

 

Arsenal Women have confirmed that star winger Chloe Kelly has signed a new five-year contract, committing her long-term future to the club. The extension signals a strong statement of intent from both Kelly and the Gunners, as they look to build a squad capable of challenging for major honours at home and in Europe.

The 27-year-old England international joined Arsenal in 2023 after a successful spell at Manchester City, and she has quickly become a fan favourite at the Emirates. Known for her pace, creativity, and composure under pressure, Kelly has delivered consistent performances on the pitch, contributing goals and assists at key moments.

Speaking to the club’s media team, Kelly expressed her delight at extending her stay in North London.

> “I’m really happy to commit my future to Arsenal. This club means a lot to me, and I believe we’re building something special here. I want to win trophies, and I believe this is the best place to do that,” she said.

Since rejoining the club where she began her youth career, Kelly has flourished under head coach Jonas Eidevall. She played a crucial role in Arsenal’s 2024 FA Women’s Cup triumph and was instrumental in their strong showing in the Women’s Super League (WSL) last season, where the Gunners finished second.

Eidevall praised Kelly’s impact and leadership both on and off the pitch:

> “Chloe is a top professional and an incredible talent. She brings energy, quality, and a winning mentality to the squad. Securing her for the long term is a huge boost for us,” he said.

Kelly’s contract extension comes at a pivotal time in her career. With England preparing to defend their UEFA Women’s Euro title next summer, the winger is focused on maintaining peak form at club level to ensure her spot in Sarina Wiegman’s squad. Having scored the winning goal in the Euro 2022 final, Kelly is eager to add more silverware to her collection, both domestically and internationally.

> “I’ve had amazing memories with England, but there’s so much more I want to achieve,” Kelly said. “To do that, I need to keep pushing myself every day, and Arsenal gives me the perfect environment for that.”

Off the pitch, Kelly has also emerged as a role model for young players. Her journey from Arsenal’s academy to the top of the women’s game is a testament to her resilience and dedication. With this new deal, she’s poised to play a central role in Arsenal’s long-term ambitions.

Arsenal are expected to remain active in the transfer market as they continue to strengthen the squad around key players like Kelly. With her future now secured, fans can look forward to seeing one of England’s brightest stars in red and white for years to come
