Williamson ‘proud’ to sign ‘dream’ new Arsenal contract
Arsenal Women have received a major boost after tying Leah Williamson down to a new contract.
www.standard.co.ukHere’s the latest publicly reported information about Leah Williamson:
- Recent status: Reports in 2025 noted Williamson was sidelined at the start of the WSL season due to a knee issue that required a cleanup procedure; she was expected to be out for a number of weeks but aimed to return as Arsenal progressed through the campaign. This provides context on her recovery timeline during that period.[1]
- England return: By early 2026, multiple outlets began highlighting Williamson’s return to England camps or recalls after her ACL injury, indicating she has been working to reestablish her place with the national team, with articles discussing her recall and rehabilitation process. This suggests a continued recovery and push to regain form at the international level.[3]
- Club status: Media coverage through 2025–2026 continued to follow her status at Arsenal, including discussions around injuries, returns to training, and her role within the squad as she recovers and works toward peak fitness.[4][1]
If you’d like, I can narrow this to the most recent 30 days or pull sources from a specific outlet (e.g., Arsenal official site, England Football, or major sports outlets) and summarize with citations. I can also set up a quick timeline visual if you want a snapshot of her injury and return milestones.
