Arsenal announce departure of defender Goldie

Arsenal have announced the news that defender Teyah Goldie will be leaving the club when her contract comes to an end this summer.

The Gunners confirmed the player’s departure via a post on their official club website this afternoon.

The 20-year-old centre-back joined Arsenal 14 years ago and she progressed her way through the club’s youth ranks to the first team. Goldie made her Arsenal debut in an Adobe Women’s FA Cup tie against Gillingham Women back in April 2021. Since making her debut, the player has added five more first team appearances to her tally.

Goldie has also gained senior playing experience out on loan in recent seasons. She spent some of the 2021/2022 campaign with Watford before making 19 appearances for London City Lionesses in the Barclays Women’s Championship this season as the club won the league title, along with promotion to the top tier. While Goldie’s next career move is not known, it would be no surprise to see her return to Hayes Lane on a permanent basis.

On the international stage, Goldie currently finds herself within the England pathway. She has represented The Young Lionesses up to and including Under-23 level.

Goldie is the third player to be leaving Arsenal this summer. Forward Lina Hurtig and defender Amanda Ilestedt are also moving on at the end of the season.
