Arsenal midfielder Frida Maanum is “conscious” and in a “stable condition” after collapsing to the ground in the 95th minute of the Conti Cup final against Chelsea on Sunday, the north London club have said.
The Norway international collapsed off the ball at Molineux Stadium with the score level at 0-0. A nine-minute delay ensued as the 24-year-old received extensive treatment before being carried off on a stretcher. She was subsequently replaced by Alessia Russo and the game resumed.
An Arsenal spokesperson told ESPN: “Frida is conscious, talking and in a stable condition. She will continue to be monitored closely by our medical team.”
Maanum has starred at Arsenal since joining the club in 2021. She also has 72 caps for Norway.
