Caldentey has spent 10 years at Barcelona and has scored 114 goals in 302 matches for one of the biggest clubs in women’s football, she has won three Champions Leagues and six Spanish league trophies, plus the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 with Spain. This lady is dripping in honours and will hopefully bring some of her silverware-winning ways to north London at the end of the month.
Caldentey is seen as a direct replacement for Vivianne Miedema, who will depart Arsenal Women, as a free agent, at the end of this month.

It’s unusual for a star player to leave Barca. Pleased to have her on board.
