Caitlin Foord scored for Australia against Brazil at last summer's Women's World Cup in FranceAustralia forward Caitlin Foord has signed for Women's Super League champions Arsenal. The 25-year-old has won 77 caps for the Matildas, including four appearances at 2019's World Cup in France. She most recently represented Sydney FC in Australia's W-League but also played for Portland Thorns in North America's NWSL last term. Portland traded their rights to Foord with Orlando Pride earlier in January as part of a switch of draft picks, but Arsenal have acquired Foord on a full-time basis from both Sydney and Orlando, who she did not play a game for. Arsenal - who are managed by Australian coach Joe Montemurro - are second in the WSL, behind leaders Manchester City on goal difference.
