Story updated

The story in brief

26-second read

Arsenal’s long-serving general counsel Svenja Geissmar has left the club after 17 years. The Lawyer reports that Geissmar has departed, while her LinkedIn profile lists her time at Arsenal as running from September 2009 until August 2026.

The club have yet to announce her exit or confirm how her responsibilities will be reassigned. Geissmar was Arsenal’s first in-house lawyer and became a long-standing member of the Executive Team.

She headed the Legal, Safeguarding and Data Protection department, with a remit that covered pretty much everything happening beyond the touchline, and quite a lot on it.
