Arsenal Women’s team received a significant boost as Swedish international winger Lina Hurtig returned to training after a prolonged absence.
Daily Canon reports that Hurtig, who joined Arsenal from Juventus in 2022, has faced a challenging period with injuries and personal issues that limited her appearances over the past two seasons.
The 28-year-old winger’s return to the Sobha Realty Training Centre in London marks a positive development for both the player and the club.
Hurtig’s last season was particularly tough, with only two appearances before an injury sidelined her in December 2023.
Despite the setbacks, Hurtig has shown resilience and determination to get back on the pitch.
In a heartfelt message on Instagram, Hurtig expressed her gratitude towards her teammates, staff, and family for their unwavering support during her difficult period.
“I’m very happy to say that I’m back now and feeling like myself again,” she shared.
Head coach Jonas Eidevall welcomed Hurtig’s return, highlighting her potential to add depth and firepower to the team’s attack.
With fellow Swedish internationals Stina Blackstenius and Amanda Ilestedt in the squad, Hurtig’s comeback is expected to strengthen Arsenal’s offensive options.
As Hurtig focuses on regaining match fitness, Arsenal fans eagerly anticipate her return to competitive action, hoping she will make a significant impact in the upcoming season.
