Arsenal Women’s squad for the 2026/27 UEFA Women’s Champions League league phase has been officially confirmed ahead of Tuesday night’s opener against HB Køge.
Renée Slegers has named a strong senior group for the European campaign, while four academy players are currently registered through UEFA’s List B system.
Goalkeeper Amy Liddiard is joined by midfielders Kyri Teer-Hutchins, Mia Dixon and Bryony Brodie, giving Arsenal additional young options alongside their established first-team squad.
The official UEFA Arsenal squad confirms the complete registration ahead of the league phase.
Four Arsenal youngsters registered on List B
Liddiard, Teer-Hutchins, Dixon and Brodie are all marked by UEFA as List B players.
The system allows clubs to register an unlimited number of eligible young players during the season without using one of the maximum 25 spaces available on List A.
Under the 2026/27 UEFA Women’s Champions League regulations, eligible List B players must meet age and club-registration requirements.
It gives Slegers greater flexibility should she decide to involve academy talent during a demanding European campaign.
Teer-Hutchins, 17, is listed among Arsenal’s midfielders and wears number 55 in Europe.
Dixon, 16, and Brodie, 17, provide further midfield depth, while 17-year-old Liddiard is registered alongside senior goalkeepers Misa Rodríguez, Anneke Borbe and Isabella Damm.
Arsenal name experienced Champions League squad
Arsenal’s main registration contains the core of Slegers’ senior squad.
Leah Williamson, Lotte Wubben-Moy, Emily Fox, Ona Batlle and Steph Catley are among the defensive options.
Midfield includes Kim Little, Georgia Stanway, Mariona Caldentey, Frida Maanum and Kyra Cooney-Cross.
Slegers also has considerable attacking depth available through Alessia Russo, Caitlin Foord, Chloe Kelly, Stina Blackstenius, Olivia Smith, Selina Cerci and Lisa Baum.
Smilla Holmberg is included among Arsenal’s defenders after strengthening her case for more minutes with her late equaliser against Manchester United.
