Michelle Agyemang suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament during England's friendly victory over Australia earlier this week, with the injury set to keep the forward sidelined for the rest of the season, her club Arsenal confirmed on Thursday.

England won 3-0 at Derby's Pride Park but the friendly was overshadowed by Agyemang's knee injury as she was carried off the field on a stretcher.

Agyemang had joined Brighton & Hove Albion on loan for the 2025-26 season.

"We can confirm that Michelle Agyemang suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament injury while playing in England's 3-0 win over Australia in Derby on Tuesday," Arsenal said in a statement.
