The full West Ham United women's squad for Women's Super League 2024/25
Here's the West Ham United women's squad for the Women's Super League season, as the Irons look to survive relegation
The West Ham United women's squad is ready for the Women's Super League season, with the Irons looking to avoid the drop once more.
Another relegation scrap could be on the cards at West Ham, after all. But for a vital winner from Viviane Asseyi away to Bristol City, the Hammers may have finished bottom.
However, experienced manager Rehanne Skinner has had a full summer to reshape the squad. They lost a top goalkeeper in Mackenzie Arnold, but Poland international Kinga Szemik is a strong replacement. Germany youth international Shekiera Martinez will add quality at the top of the pitch.
WSL SQUADS Arsenal / Aston Villa / Brighton / Chelsea / Crystal Palace / Everton / Leicester City / Liverpool / Manchester City / Manchester United / Tottenham Hotspur / West Ham United
Preseason has been tough but West Ham have brought in eight new faces, as Skinner puts her stamp on the team. With experience in the dugout, there's plenty of hope for the season.
And not just in the WSL. West Ham enter the FA Cup in the fourth round as a top-tier club, with the first fixture coming in January.
The League Cup comes before that. The Irons have been drawn in a group with with Portsmouth, London City Lionesses and Southampton.

Key player
West Ham United women's key player: Viviane Asseyi
In a league of up-and-comers, Viviane Asseyi is a 30-year-old who's been there and done that, at the likes of Bayern Munich and Marseille. The forward has been a regular France international for over a decade and will be hoping to improve on her personal best of six goals in a WSL season for her third campaign.
Manager
West Ham United women's manager: Rehanne Skinner
One of the most recognisable names in English women's football, Rehanne Skinner joined West Ham from Tottenham last season, becoming their first female manager in the WSL era. Having taken Spurs to unprecedented heights, she's now hoping to do the same in east London.
