Nobbs and Carter sign new contracts

Arsenal Ladies are delighted to announce that midfielder Jordan Nobbs and forward Danielle Carter have agreed new contracts with the Club.

England international Jordan Nobbs enjoyed an excellent league season with the Gunners. The 20-year-old played in all 14 of the team’s 2013 Super League fixtures, scoring six times. She also helped the side to an FA Women’s Cup and Continental Cup double this term.

Nobbs’ fine domestic form earned her a call up to the senior England team earlier this year, and she marked her full debut with a goal from 25 yards, against Italy in the Cyprus Cup on 6 March 2013.

Carter, 20, has become an integral part of Shelley Kerr’s team in recent months. Always technically gifted and quick, the young striker has now developed into a clinical finisher too. 

Since the return of the Super League from the mid-season break, in August, Carter has netted a total of 16 goals in 14 games, including five against WFC SSHVSM Kairat in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

An England U-23 international, she was called up to the senior England side for the first time in September.

Arsenal Ladies manager Shelley Kerr said: “I’m delighted that Jordan and Danielle have decided to commit their futures to the team. They’re both extremely talented young players and I know they’ll continue to develop and grow in the seasons ahead.”
