England international defender Lotte has so far made 143 senior appearances for Arsenal, scoring ten goals along the way.

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.'

Chauffeur expands business with luxury BMW
A chauffeur who has worked for sporting legends and rock stars is expanding his business. Steve Rogers, who started CLASS Executive Cars in Romsey two years ago, has seen a surge in demand from the corporate sector, hospitality events, and social engagements. To meet this increased demand, the company has added a luxurious BMW 7 Series to its fleet. Newly refurbished GO Outdoors store opens in Southampton Mr Rogers said: "There's no doubt that the unpredictability of public transport together with our clients' priorities of safety, reliability, and confidentiality, has led to an increase in bookings. "I think the key to our success is that we offer a service where our clients can concentrate on their engagements while we handle the logistics. "The new vehicle gives us much more flexibility." Mr Rogers, who has more than 40 years of experience, has worked with major cruise companies and operates locally, nationally, and internationally. He aims to fill a gap in the market for people who need a reliable and cost-effective driver for business and social engagements. The company offers a range of premium chauffeur services for both private individuals and corporate clients. These include a VIP door-to-door service for busy executives, corporate hospitality, and special events, as well as airport and cruise transfers. They also provide a fully qualified and experienced driver for clients who want to use their own car. Mr Rogers has had a stellar career, having been a police-trained driver with some fascinating assignments at home and abroad. Last year, he drove international rock artists like Green Day and Nile Rodgers and regularly meets leaders of industry as their private jets land at Farnborough Airport. In 2022, he chauffeured senior UEFA officials in England for the UEFA Women's Championship, which saw the Lionesses beat Germany 2-1 in the final at Wembley. In 2021, he was a driver for, among others, Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic, who were playing the Laver Cup at the O2 in London.
