Swedish international forward Lina Hurtig will leave Arsenal this summer when her current contract comes to an end. The Gunners announced the news via a post on their official club website this morning. Advertisement The 29-year-old attacker joined Arsenal from Italian club Juventus in summer 2022. She has gone on to score seven goals for The Gunners in 36 appearances in all competitions. Hurtig has helped Arsenal to win back-to-back Subway Women's League Cups in her time in North London.
