Former Arsenal goalkeeper Sari van Veenendaal has signed for Spanish club Atletico Madrid. Sari left the Gunners at the end of last season at the expiration of her contract, having lost her place to Pauline Peyraud-Magnin in goal.

Sari’s departure was announced at the end of last season, but her new club remained a secret. van Veenendaal won the Golden Gloves award for goalkeeper of the tournament at this summer’s World Cup, where the Netherlands side she captained reached the final.
