Football: Lotte Wubben-Moy signs new contract with Arsenal Women
London: Lotte Wubben-Moy has signed a new contract with Arsenal Women, continuing her long-term association with the Lady Gunners. England international defender Lotte has so far made 143 senior appearances for Arsenal, scoring ten goals along the way.
Aged 26, Lotte developed through Arsenal's youth academy before making her senior debut in 2015 at the age of just 16. She then spent time in the USA with the North Carolina Tar Heels, before returning to Gunners in 2020.
Lotte has won the FA Cup and three League Cup titles with Arsenal across her two spells at the club and was voted our 2023/24 Player of the Season following an outstanding campaign.
Meanwhile, at the international level, Lotte has won 13 caps for England. She was part of the Lionesses squad, which won the 2022 UEFA Women's Championship and reached the FIFA World Cup Final in 2023.
Lotte was also honoured with the Charlton Award in July 2024 for her significant impact on developing the future of football.
'I feel a huge amount of pride, excitement, and optimism to once again put pen to paper at this special football club. Arsenal is the club I want to win with, and I feel this new contract comes at a time in my career where my ambitions are matched by my abilities on the pitch. I'm determined to make this next chapter count," Lotte said in the statement.
Head coach Renee Slegers added, 'We're so happy that Lotte has signed a new contract. Lotte is a top defender who has shown significant progression in recent years, and will continue to play an important role as we pursue our shared goal of competing for the highest honours in the game.'
Director of Women's Football Clare Wheatley said, 'We're very proud of Lotte's journey from our academy to our first team, through to this new contract here with us. Lotte is a wonderful role model for all young players – an example of how hard work, strong values, and determination are the platform for success. We know that she will continue to give all of herself to Arsenal Football Club, on the pitch, and of course in her consistent support of our wider community.'

FIFA Club World Cup 2025: Barcelona's Lamine Yamal to Al Nassr's Cristiano Ronaldo - 5 biggest names to miss out
The FIFA Club World Cup 2025 is just two night away from kick-off in the United States with one billion dollars of prize money on the line. With 32 teams vying for the top prize, the month-long tournament will see some of the best footballing talents showcasing their skills at the top level. However, there are a few big names who will not be lighting up stadiums across the United States once it gets underway this weekend. Let's take a look at five of the top names who won't be in action at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. Despite finishing as the champions of England, Liverpool's Mohamed Salah will not be in action at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 because of the English club's absence at the global event. At the English Premier League 2024-25, Salah broke the tournament record with 29 goals and 18 assists. The Egyptian winger was recently seen sunbathing by the beach, the photo of which he posted on Instagram. One of the teen sensations at the moment, Lamile Yamal will not be seen at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 due to Barcelona's absence in the tournament just like Liverpool. The 17-year-old winger has been in sensational form for his club this season and is one of the candidates to win the Ballon d'Or. Yamal's thrilling dribbling and penchant for the spectacular make him one of the biggest draws in world football. Fans around the world will be miss out on a Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi face-off at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 after Al Nassr failed to qualify for the global event. The 40-year-old Portuguese striker and a five-time Ballon d'Or winner, Ronaldo recently lifted the UEFA Nations League with Portugal last weekend. Champions League semi-finalists Arsenal are another team to miss out and after finishing the season trophyless, the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 would have been a chance to win some silverware. England international Bukayo Saka's only club trophy, excluding the FA Community Shield, was an FA Cup win with Arsenal in 2020. Mikel Arteta's side showed this season they have improved to the point where they are in contention for major honours, including knocking out Real Madrid in the Champions League, but came up just short. Brazilian icon Neymar struggled with injury at Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia and returned to Santos in January 2025, hoping to get fit and firing ahead of next summer's FIFA World Cup. The 33-year-old forward, despite fading with age, is still one of the biggest names in the game and his absence is also a blow in a commercial sense.

FIFA Club World Cup 2025: Manchester City leave Jack Grealish out as Premier League club name 27-member squad
Manchester City have left out Jack Grealish from their squad for the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 after the England international was not included in the 27-member travelling list announced by the Premier League club on Wednesday. The omission of Grealish was anticipated after the midfielder fell down in the pecking order at Manchester City after playing a huge role in their treble in 2023. He made just seven Premier League starts in the 2024-25 campaign and wasn't called out of the bench during Manchester City's 0-1 defeat to Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final last month. Grealish was also left out of Manchester City's match-day squad for their final Premier League game of the season at Fulham. The 29-year-old had signed for £100 million from Aston Villa four years ago. There is a growing speculation thar Grealish might leave with a number of clubs in England and in Europe showing interest in the midfielder. Just like Grealish, Kevin De Bruyne has also not been included in Manchester City's trip to the United States. The Belgian playmaker is leaving Manchester City this summer but could still have played before his contract expires on June 30. The 33-year-old looks set to join Serie A champions Napoli when he officially becomes a free agent. Meanwhile, New signings Rayan Ait-Nouri, Rayan Cherki, Tijani Reijnders and Marcus Bettinelli are all included in Pep Guardiola's squad, which could have featured up to 35 names. There will be an opportunity to register more players for the knockout stages should Manchester City progress that far. Manchester City begin their FIFA Club World Cup 2025 campaign against Moroccan side Wydad Casablanca in Philadelphia next Wednesday before facing further group games against Al Ain of Abu Dhabi and Juventus. Midfielder Mateo Kovacic is missing through injury, while James McAtee is on international duty with England Under-21s. Marcus Bettinelli, Stefan Ortega Moreno, Ederson, Ruben Dias, Tijjani Reijnders, John Stones, Nathan Ake, Omar Marmoush, Erling Haaland, Jeremy Doku, Nico Gonzalez, Rodri, Ilkay Gundogan, Bernardo Silva, Rayan Ait-Nouri, Vitor Reis, Josko Gvardiol, Manuel Akanji, Savinho, Matheus Nunes, Rayan Cherki, Claudio Echeverri, Abdukodir Khusanov, Phil Foden, Oscar Bobb, Nico O'Reilly, Rico Lewis

Jack Grealish, Kyle Walker Left Out Of Manchester City Squad For Club World Cup
Jack Grealish's future at Manchester City was plunged into further doubt on Wednesday after the England international was left out of Pep Guardiola's squad for the Club World Cup. Despite City naming just 27 players from a possible 35 for the tournament beginning in the United States on June 14, Grealish was omitted alongside former captain Kyle Walker. All four of the club's new signings this week - Rayan Ait-Nouri, Rayan Cherki, Tijani Reijnders and Marcus Bettinelli - are included. Ballon d'Or winner Rodri is also selected after making his comeback from a long-term knee injury just before the end of the Premier League season. Grealish, who remains City's record signing after a £100 million ($135 million) move from Aston Villa in 2021, has fallen down the pecking order over the past two seasons. He made just seven Premier League starts in the 2024/25 campaign and was notably not summoned from the bench as City went down to a 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final last month. The 29-year-old still has two years left to run on his City contract and his reported £300,000-a-week ($405,000) wages are a barrier to finding a potential suitor. Guardiola threatened last month he could leave the club if the size of his squad is not cut before the new season begins. Grealish is just one of a number of expected exits, along with Walker. The 35-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan at AC Milan, but the Italian giants have not taken up an option to buy. City begin their Club World Cup campaign against Moroccan side Wydad Casablanca in Philadelphia next Wednesday before facing further group games against Al Ain of Abu Dhabi and Juventus.
