England international Georgia Stanway will leave Bayern Munich upon the expiry of her contract at the end of the season.
The 27-year-old moved to Bayern from Manchester City in 2022 and has won three league titles.
During her time in Germany, she has won two European trophies with the Lionesses and has become recognised as one of the best midfielders in the world.
Stanway, who has 87 caps for England, is permitted to sign a pre-contract agreement with another club this month with a view to joining in the summer.
It is understood Arsenal have emerged as the frontrunners and have been in talks with Stanway over a potential agreement, though other clubs have shown interest.
Should Arsenal agree a deal with Stanway, it would be regarded as one of the biggest transfers of the January window.
Arsenal are looking to build a squad capable of winning the Women’s Super League, having lifted the Champions League trophy in May, and are working to secure additions for the summer.
Manager Renee Slegers also signed a new three-year deal this week.
