The ex-Watford youngster, who has had four spells with the Gunners, has won two international caps for England.

Davison, who has also spent time playing in the USA, previously worked with Chelsea Ladies manager Emma Hayes at Arsenal.

"Gemma is a winner and will add that mentality to the squad we have and help move us to the next level," Hayes said.

"Her one-on-one ability is as good as anyone in the world and she is now ready to become a top player for Chelsea and England.

"She played a huge part in Liverpool's success last season, contributing the joint most assists in the league."
