Arsenal forward Michelle Agyemang has joined Brighton & Hove Albion on a season-long loan deal.

WSL Full-Time were informed of the news via an official club press release from The Seagulls this afternoon.

After adding Agyemang to his squad, Brighton & Hove Albion head coach Dario Vidošić said “We’re delighted to welcome Michelle to the club. She is a goalscorer and excellent playmaker.

“We’re looking forward to seeing what she can add to our team this season.”

Agyemang is Brighton & Hove Albion’s 11th signing of the summer transfer window.
