Katie McCabe has officially signed a new contract with Arsenal, the Women’s Super League club have announced.

The Republic of Ireland captain has played 193 times for the Gunners, scoring 31 goals, since joining them in the winter of 2015.

The 28-year-old from Dublin has been a key fixture in Arsenal’s setup in recent years, helping the club lift the 2019 WSL title, as well as an FA Cup and two League Cups.

The length of her new deal with the north London club has not been revealed at the time of writing.

Champions League Team of the Year

McCabe was also named on the UEFA Women’s Champions League Team of the Year last season for her performances in red and white.

In one of the highlights of her career to date, she captained Ireland at the 2023 Women’s World Cup in New Zealand and Australia, where she scored her country’s only goal of the tournament, from a corner against Canada.

McCabe extends Gunners stay

“Arsenal is home for me and I’m excited to have committed my future to this football club,” McCabe said.

“I’ve grown up here as a player and a person and developed a really special bond with our supporters, which means a lot to me.

“Over the years, I’ve experienced some amazing moments here – but I believe that the best is yet to come and I know the aim here at Arsenal is to compete for the highest honours.”
