Brazilian Gio omitted from confirmed Arsenal squad list for UWCL quarter-finals by Michelle

Arsenal Women have confirmed their squad list for the UEFA Women’s Champions League knockout rounds, with two legs against Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals to be played this month.

Arsenal play away to Bayern Munich on the evening of Tuesday 21st March before the return leg at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday 29th March. Arsenal have confirmed their squad list with UEFA for those games, with Gio omitted. You can see full squad lists for all eight Women’s Champions League Quarter-finalists at this UEFA link.

Clubs are only allowed to add three new players from the group stages. Arsenal added four new internationals to their squad in January, signing 23 year old Victoria Pelova, 19 year old Katherine Kuhl, Canadian Sabrina D’Angelo and 19 year old Brazilian winger Gio was recalled from her loan-spell at Everton.
