ARSENAL have added another attacking midfielder to their ranks with Kathrine Kuhl joining on a permanent deal.
The addition of the rising Denmark star, 19, comes a day after the Gunners signed ex-Ajax ace Victoria Pelova.

Both forwards are currently out of action after sustaining knee ligament injuries towards the end of last year.
Kuhl’s switch to Arsenal, currently second in the league, comes after her three-season spell at Danish top-flight side FC Nordsjælland.

This term the central midfielder notched up two goals and four assists in 12 appearances for her former club.
And the Denmark starlet is relishing the chance to help the push for silverware within a side she sees as a "sisterhood".
Kuhl, who has 21 international caps, told the Gunners' website: "I feel like there are so many great things around the club; all the fans and the community.
"It's like a sisterhood in some ways so I'm looking forward to being a part of that.
"It's a big step for me. I'm very excited and looking forward to playing for Arsenal."
Kuhl, who began her senior career at Nordsjælland, was part of the Denmark squad that competed in last year’s Euros.
Their group, which was some fans dubbed a group of death, featured Finland, Spain and tournament finalists Germany.
The team, skippered by Chelsea star Pernille Harder, claimed one win from their three Group E games (a 1-0 defeat of Finland) before exiting the contest due to losses to Spain and Germany.
At club level Kuhl helped her former side to Danish Women’s Cup triumph in 2020.

Elsewhere Brighton have been busily bolstering their ranks with the team eager to climb the table and widen the gap between themselves and the WSL’s drop zone.
The Seagulls, who take on bottom-placed Leicester City in their first game under new boss Jens Scheuer, have signed Brianna Visalli from Houston Dash.

Both players helped the team to lift the NWSL Challenge Cup in 2020 with Daly, now at Aston Villa, winning the tournament’s Golden Boot in July that year.
Visalli spent 2018-19 playing for Albion’s WSL rivals West Ham helping them reach the 2019 FA Cup final.
And she featured as a second half substitute during their 3-0 loss to Manchester City at Wembley.
The experienced midfielder spent the following season at Birmingham City playing in nine games for the former WSL side before her Houston move.
Visalli, who made 35 appearances over two terms for Houston, has become the third new player to sign for Albion in the January transfer window.

Of Visalli’s prowess on the pitch, Scheuer said: "She’s a midfielder with a real turn of pace. “She’s a very intelligent player and she gives us a lot of options in the midfield.
"It’s a good move for the club and her. She’s got good experience both in the WSL and in America."
