Arsenal star Frida Maanum stretchered off after collapsing off the ball in Conti Cup final against Chelsea

Arsenal player Frida Maanum was stretchered off after appearing to collapse following the ball against Chelsea.

The 24-year-old started for the Gunners in the Conti Cup final, which was being played at Wolves’ home ground at Molineux, and the match was abruptly abandoned in stoppage time.

In the final moments of the final with the score 0-0, there was concern on the pitch when Maanum fell on the ball.

His Arsenal teammate Katie McCabe immediately called for medical attention, with Maanum taken away on a stretcher in worrying scenes.

It’s unclear exactly what the nature of Maanum’s problem is, with broadcasters not going into detail about it. However, she has already received messages wishing her good luck.

“Thoughts with Frida Maanum. Really, I hope you’re okay,” Casey Stoney said on X.

“My thoughts are with Maanum at this time. The football world is with you. Speedy recovery,” Beth England said.

Arsenal Women’s official X account also said with a heart emoji: “We’re all thinking of you, Frida.”
