Leah Williamson has signed a new contract with Arsenal, extending the England captain's stay at the club to beyond two decades. The 29-year-old centre-back, who was out of contract at the end of the season, will remain a key figure in Renee Slegers' squad.
Long-Standing Commitment
Williamson has been with Arsenal since the age of eight and her new deal ensures she continues her journey with the Gunners. The vice-captain has been instrumental in the club's recent successes, including lifting the Women's Champions League title last year. Her trophy cabinet also includes the Fifa Women's Champions Cup, the Women's Super League, four League Cups, and two FA Cups.
European Ambitions
Arsenal could return to the Champions League final this weekend when they travel to Lyon for the second leg of their semi-final, following a 2-1 victory at the Emirates Stadium. Williamson's season has been disrupted by injuries after a successful Euro 2025 campaign, but she managed to start the semi-final first leg against Lyon, playing 65 minutes.
The two-time European champion with England remains a vital asset for both club and country, and her new contract solidifies her legacy at Arsenal.
