England striker Alessia Russo (24) has joined Arsenal on a free transfer after leaving Manchester United, the Women's Super League side said on Tuesday.
The forward, who joined United in 2020 and made 59 appearances in all competitions, scoring 26 goals, announced last month that she was leaving the club after her contract expired.
"We are delighted to confirm that Alessia Russo has joined us on a permanent deal," Arsenal said in a statement.
Russo, who has scored 11 goals in 21 appearances for the Lionesses and was part of the team that won last year's European Championship on home soil, is preparing for the Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand which begins on July 20.
