Arsenal wrapped up their WSL season with a 5-0 win over Brighton on Saturday, as they confirmed a third-place finish. Miedema's departure was announced earlier this week, after a season in which she suffered an ACL injury and spent more time in the treatment room than on the pitch.

The 27-year-old is the all-time top scorer in the history of the WSL but she has been limited to just 13 appearances due to her injury troubles this season. Nevertheless, Gunners fans were vocal in their hope that Miedema stays, as they chanted for her to be given a new contract as she gave a farewell speech.
DID YOU KNOW?
Miedema, who has won 118 caps for the Netherlands, won the WSL with Arsenal in 2018-19, and has also won the FA WSL Cup three times during her time in north London. She is unlikely to be short of suitors if she is allowed to leave.

Miedema's future will be central to Arsenal's summer. It remains to be seen if the club will listen to the fans or allow their hugely popular striker to leave.
