Rank the top 10 WSL players this season.

The first international break of the 2024/25 WSL season has concluded, with activity ready to resume this weekend.


Manchester City now leads the rankings after winning four of their first five games, but both Chelsea and Manchester United have a game in hand. Aston Villa, West Ham, and Everton sit at the bottom of the table with two points each, but the Hammers' goal difference leaves them worse off.

Several exceptional performers have emerged in the early parts of the campaign, including Chelsea, Manchester City, and Manchester United players.

Prior to this weekend's matches, 90min has ranked the top 10 players of the season thus far.

10) Hannah Hampton.


Chelsea have made a solid start to the season, but Hannah Hampton has also established herself as the club's number one goalkeeper. The Blues have surrendered three goals in their first four games and are second in the standings, having played one fewer game than leaders Manchester City. Hampton has already made significant contributions this season, most notably against Aston Villa on the opening day. Chelsea narrowly won 1-0 that night, although they could have lost points late if not for several crucial stops.

9. Olivia Smith


Liverpool are yet to hit their stride this season, having won one and drawn three of their first five games. Olivia Smith, the Reds' summer addition, has emerged as a strong player. The Merseyside club shattered their transfer record to buy the 20-year-old Canadian sensation from Sporting CP, and she is already proving to be a game changer. She has already scored two amazing goals this season, one of which came against Manchester City at Anfield.

8.Kiko Seike.


Kiko Seike, a Japanese international, is one of the WSL's most interesting new players this season. On her debut, the 28-year-old became the first player in WSL history to score a hat-trick. Seike is yet to add to her total, but she has been a major component in Brighton's early season success. Under new manager Dario Vidosic, they have won three of their first five games and lost only one.

7. Maya le Tissier


Manchester United's defensive record in the early stages of the new season is impressive. Marc Skinner's side has not lost in four games and has conceded only one goal. Newly appointed captain Maya Le Tissier is just one of the names responsible for United's improved defensive record, which they will try to sustain as they seek to reclaim the top three. Le Tissier has also scored this season, converting a penalty in a 3-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur earlier this month. Her performances for her club earned her appearances in both of England's games during the international break.

6. Sandy Baltimore


Sandy Baltimore, a 24-year-old French international, was just one of Chelsea's new signings this summer. Despite being a forward, she has frequently played left back under Sonia Bompastor this season. Despite playing out of position, Baltimore has scored two league goals in four games this season. That includes the victory against rivals Arsenal at the Emirates in early October.

5) Celin Bizet


Celin Bizet of United has more assists than any other player in the WSL this season. The former Spurs player joined the Red Devils late in the transfer window and has slotted in flawlessly. United have lost one game this season. Bizet has contributed considerably to the triumphs thus far, notably from right back at times, but she has yet to score herself.

4) Khadija Shaw


It's no surprise that Khadija Shaw of Manchester City is already one of the WSL's top scorers this season. Her most noteworthy contribution was two goals against Liverpool at Anfield, which enabled City to come from behind and clinch a critical victory. The 27-year-old Jamaica international is unstoppable, and she will look to win the golden boot for the second year in a row. Her goal-scoring form will be critical to City's possible title challenge this season.

3. Lauren Hemp


Lauren Hemp, another of City's stars, has enjoyed an equally impressive start to the campaign. The 24-year-old has two goals and two assists in the WSL so far. One of those assists came on Shaw's equalizer versus Liverpool at Anfield. She also scored the equalizer and set up the winner in their narrow 2-1 win over Aston Villa before the international break.

2. Grace Clinton.


Few athletes have had as big an impact as Grace Clinton this season. United's great start to the season may be attributed in large part to the 21-year-old's exceptional goal-scoring ability. Clinton has scored in three of the Red Devils' first four WSL games, two of which were victories. Given how she has begun the season, it is no surprise that Skinner and the club were eager to keep her after a successful loan spell at Tottenham last season.

1. Johanna Rytting Kaneryd.


Johanna Rytting Kaneryd of Chelsea is on course to be named player of the season after scoring three goals and assisting on two others in four WSL games. If the Sweden international can keep up her current form, she might be instrumental in helping Bompastor's team win another league title. Prior to the international break, she also scored an early season contender against London rivals Tottenham. The 27-year-old is unstoppable at the moment.

From Chloe Kelly to Naomi Girma, here are ten players that could move in January.

As the winter transfer market opens, we take a look at ten prominent players who may change teams next month. Naomi Girma Age 24 Nationality US Club San Diego Wave Girma, widely regarded as one of the top centre-backs in the world and recently named to the FIFA top XI, is nearing the final year of her contract, and speculation has grown that she may leave San Diego. Only the world's wealthiest clubs are expected to be able to afford her this window, and she has been connected with French giants Lyon, although Chelsea are also looking for a central defender after Kadeisha Buchanan suffered a season-ending anterior cruciate ligament damage. Chloe Kelly Age 26 Nationality English Club Manchester City Having started only one Women’s Super League game this season, a move away from Manchester City may be the solution for Kelly to secure more match minutes in her quest for a seat on the plane to Euro 2025 with the Lionesses next summer.

Rodri of Manchester City criticizes Real Madrid's tactics following their Champions League defeat: I only saw one squad.

  Rodri complained about Real Madrid's tactics after Manchester City's painful Champions League quarter-final loss, saying he "saw only one team" striving to win. City's European title defence came to an end in agony on Wednesday at the Etihad Stadium, with the Spanish giants winning 4-3 in penalties after a 1-1 draw on the night made the tie 4-4 on aggregate.  The holders dominated the match, with 33 shots on goal to the visitors' eight, but Real defended deep to frustrate them and ultimately extinguish their dreams of a second consecutive triple. City midfielder Rodri stated, "To be honest, I only saw one team. They defended well. They knew how to suffer, and we know how resilient Real Madrid is. "But, in my opinion, we should take that many chances; yet, this is the trick of this competition. They understand how to play it. We congratulate them. "We gave all, and there is nothing to regret. This can occasionally be football. This demonstrat...

Barcelona's final attempt to register Dani Olmo will face a court battle.

Barcelona's chances of having Dani Olmo and Pau Victor available for the rest of the season appear to be dwindling. After missing the deadline to remain registered for the remainder of the season, Barcelona delivered La Liga all of the necessary documentation for the sale of their VIP seats, a deal worth an estimated €110 million that would allow them to do so. However, due to the missing deadline, La Liga would not allow Barcelona to keep Olmo and Victor registered, as rules prohibit players from being registered twice. As a result, Barcelona's sole contractual option is to file a court appeal to their decision. According to MD, they have a variety of legal options. They may claim force majeure, which refers to unforeseeable situations that prevent them from assembling the documentation for La Liga, but legal experts say that is unlikely to qualify for that verdict. However, according to the Catalan daily, the most likely argument is that the registration period be extended...

Borussia Dortmund is 'considering a bid' for Marcus Rashford.

Borussia Dortmund is investigating a transfer for Marcus Rashford. According to the Athletic's David Ornstein, the Bundesliga club has joined the hunt for Manchester United's out-of-favour attacker in the summer. Rashford has become a peripheral character at Old Trafford with the arrival of Rúben Amorim, being dropped from four consecutive matchday lineups. He returned for a home loss to Newcastle but missed last weekend's draw at Liverpool due to illness, and his long-term chances remain bleak. Rashford has also been linked with Serie A giants Milan and Juventus, as well as many undisclosed Premier League suitors.

Not all of the continent's titans have realized their full potential in Germany, but if they want to raise the Henri Delaunay Cup on July 14, they must rediscover their mojo soon.
