UEFA have made itself clear. No two clubs can have the same ownership in the same European competition. Women's teams will not be exempt from this rule. This rule was applied to Crystal Palace and the Europa League, as they were demoted to the Conference League after UEFA ruled they had breached the multi-club ownership rules due to former co-owner John Textor's ties to Lyon. 

As the WSL comes to an end, let's look back at some of the most crucial matches that reshaped the entire 2025/26 season.

It felt wrong and weird that her departure announcement was the day after the last home game at the Emirates of the season where other players like Beth Mead got their flowers, it feels wrong to not compare her in front of the home crowd after 11 years of service, But their last game of the season is all the way up in Liverpool at Anfield where she will lead the side out as Captain.

Sam officially left years ago. She shook and created a leaving video, then, 30 minutes later, after shocking the internet, announced she would sign a new contract for another two years. Those two years are up, and she's "It's official, now I am leaving Chelsea”. Feels bittersweet as she is finally getting back to the old Sam Kerr ways of scoring goals consistently for the club that supported her through everything, only to leave when she was ready

This weekend, we see what has been an iconic WSL season come to an end, with so much unpredictability, while the title has been secured. Off-pitch farewells, final home appearances, and emotional retirements will define the closing feature. 

This season, F1 switched things up in hopes of being more environmentally conscious. They decided, as part of their new regulatory changes, to switch the power units to a 50/50 split. Still, they have decided to go full 360 on this and revert to a 60-40 split in favour of the internal combustion engine, reducing the dominance of electric power.

For 76 years, the world has been mesmerised by F1, its need for speed, the on-the-edge moments, the jeopardy. 1950 for the first official world championship race, the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, which is why it is known as the home of motorsports. Over the seven-plus decades, we have seen the sport evolve and change, and, for the most part, for the better, with a high emphasis on safety and diversity. While the sport is a long way from being diverse, especially among drivers off the track, it has come a long way. But there have only been 14 women on an F1 podium in the 3,459 individual constructors' podiums in history.

Chelsea’s hopes of another trip to Wembley were shattered in one of the most chaotic and controversial FA Cup semi-finals in recent memory as Manchester City fought back from two goals down to win 3-2 after extra time at Stamford Bridge.

The Women’s Super League is approaching a summer that could quietly reshape the future of several of its biggest clubs. Across Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City, some of the league’s most experienced and recognisable stars are entering the final stretch of their current contracts. Yet, official clarity over their futures remains limited.

For the first time, Stamford Bridge will host its women's team in the FA Cup. The club prepares to host all 13 of its WSL home games at the stadium next season. They face off against the newly crowned WSL champions, Manchester City, who usurped the trophy from Chelsea, who have had a WSL season to forget after six consecutive titles. City aim to reach their first FA Cup final since 2022, and Chelsea hope to reach their second consecutive FA Cup final under manager Sonia Bompastor.

Aston Villa Women will mark the end of two careers following the retirements of Lucy Staniforth and Paula Tomás.
