I remember watching Arsenal as a young kid, so It's amazing to be a part of this team. I can't wait to meet all of my teammates," the club's official website quoted Williams as saying."The deal is subject to the completion of regulatory processes," Arsenal said in a statement.The 32-year-old goalkeeper started her career at Canberra United FC in 2008, making 48 appearances for the club in her first spell.
