Isabella Damm has joined Arsenal on a permanent deal from Brondby IF after a trial last season. The 18‑year‑old Denmark youth international progressed through Brondby’s youth ranks, debuting for the first team in October 2025.

"I'm so proud to be joining Arsenal and I can't wait to get started," Damm said. She will wear the number 40 shirt and joins goalkeepers Daphne van Domselaar and Anneke Borbe in the club’s department.

Manager Renee Slegers praised Damm’s technical ability, composure and bravery, noting her high ceiling for growth. Arsenal director Clare Wheatley added that the club has monitored her for some time and believes she is one of Europe’s best young goalkeepers in her age group.
