Anna Margaretha Marina Astrid "Vivianne" Miedema (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɑnaː mɑrɣaːˈreːtaː maːˈrinaː ˈɑstrɪt viviˈɑnə ˈmidəmaː]; born 15 July 1996) is a Dutch professional football forward who plays for English Premier League club Arsenal Ladies and the Netherlands women's national football team.

Miedema signed for SC Heerenveen at 14 and made her senior debut at 15, reportedly becoming the youngest ever player in the Eredivisie Vrouwen. Her 39 goals for Heerenveen in the 2013–14 BeNe League won her the top-scorer award. Miedema signed a contract with Bayern Munich in June 2014. In 2014–15, she was part of a young Bayern team who remained unbeaten in the Bundesliga and won the title for the first time since 1976. In May of 2017, Miedema went on to sign and thus link up with English club Arsenal Ladies.

In September 2013 coach Roger Reijners gave Miedema her debut for the senior Netherlands women's national football team, in a 4–0 win in Albania. At the 2014 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, she was vital for the Dutch success, her six goals in the tournament guided the Netherlands to the title. She was the tournament top scorer and also collected the Golden Player awarded to the best player of the tournament.
