Zinsberger moved to Arsenal in May 2019 after five years with Bayern Munich and quickly established herself as the Gunners number one.
She was between the posts earlier this month as Arsenal ended a near four-year trophy drought by coming from behind to beat Chelsea in the Continental Cup final at Selhurst Park.
