Lionesses Euro 2025 star Michelle Agyemang joins Brighton on loan

Agyemang returns to the Seagulls on loan for the second consecutive season




England Euro 2025 hero Michelle Agyemang has joined Brighton & Hove Albion on loan for the upcoming season.

The 19-year-old returns to the Seagulls after a successful loan in 2024/25, scoring five goals in 22 games across all competitins.

Agyemang scored on her debut for England and was included in the Lionesses' squad for the European Championships in Switzerland.

The striker scored two crucial goals in the knockout stages, and was named Young Player of the Tournament as England retained the trophy.

Agyemang joins the Seagulls after taking part in Arsenal's pre-season training camp in Germany, and will link up with fellow Gunner loanee Rosa Kafaji.

Director of Women’s Football Clare Wheatley said: “We’re so proud of Michelle’s achievements this summer and throughout her journey at Arsenal, from her first steps in our academy through to our first-team squad.

"After discussing closely with Michelle and her family, we have all agreed that this move will provide Michelle with a further opportunity to develop and grow, as she continues to progress as a young player and person.

"We wish Michelle every success at Brighton and look forward to welcoming her back to Arsenal at the end of her loan.”

Brighton head coach Dario Vidosic said: “We are thrilled to welcome Michelle back for another season. We loved working with her last year, and seeing how much she progressed as part of the squad.

"What she achieved during the summer with England was incredible but not surprising. She has the character, work ethic and relentless nature of a champion. As a club we’re incredibly proud of her.

“She was a pivotal part of our record-breaking season last year and we’re excited for what this new season looks like with her in our attack.”
