ToggleAfter becoming the all-time leading scorer in Women’s Super League history during her time with the Gunners, Miedema decided to take on a new challenge in the summer of 2024. She has not moved far, with life in north London being swapped for that in the North West.

A first outing back in familiar surroundings was always going to be an emotional one, and Miedema admits that it was a struggle to control her emotions when lining up in front of a fan base that used to idolise her – with the 28-year-old turning from friend to foe.
Arsenal were given another reminder of quite how clinical Miedema can be as she netted in an entertaining 2-2 draw. She posted on social media afterwards, with nobody left too disappointed after the spoils were shared: “There’s not been many games I’ve been more nervous for than for this one. but thank you and I’m grateful for the warm welcome (back) from all fans today.”
Miedema won the WSL title with Arsenal in 2018-19, along with three League Cups, and is hoping to get back on the trophy trail during her debut campaign with City. The 2024-25 season is now up and running, with everyone trying to wrestle a domestic crown away from defending champions Chelsea.
