Which football clubs do the Lionesses play for besides England? A deep-dive into their other jobs
The England women's squad have done it again, bringing home the trophy after beating Spain on penalties in the Euros 2025 final! Which also means, after a well-deserved celebration, the Lionesses will now be turning their attention back to their other jobs AKA all the other football clubs that they all play for besides the England team. A spicy thought: this also means some of the England players will be going head to head against one another before too long, when the Barclays Women's Super League (quite literally) kicks off come September. So, let's take a deep-dive! Here are all the other football clubs the Lionesses play for and whether they're set to clash with any of their England teammates in the near future... Iconic forward Kelly has moved over from Manchester City to Arsenal W.F.C – who are set to play Manchester United on 21 September, a team which is captained by Kelly's England teammate, Maya Le Tissier, and also features midfielders, Grace Clinton and Ella Toone. Defender Wubben-Moy is in great company over at Arsenal. Previously, she spent two years playing and studying in the United States. Chief Lioness (AKA the England women's team captain) Williamson started out on the Arsenal youth programme at the tender age of 9 and has remained loyal ever since – she's coming up to almost 20 years there. Mead was a part of the winning Arsenal squad that took home the UEFA Women's Champions League Trophy this year. Another big name amongst the Lionesses, Russo is an Arsenal forward when she's not scoring for England (she's netted 37 during 74 appearances for them, FYI). Having just won Young Player of the Euros, 19-year-old Agyemang has firmly cemented herself as a name to watch – and Arsenal look set for an incredibly strong season with her, Kelly, Williamson, Russo, Mead and Wubben-Moy on the team. Coming on during extra time for England in the final, Clinton is a key midfielder for Manchester United Women Football Club. Midfielder Toone played 87 minutes for England, according to the MUWFC report, and saw the most on-pitch action during the Euros compared to her Man U teammates. Sadly Le Tissier didn't make it on to the pitch during this year's Euros, but as captain of Manchester United WFC there'll be no stopping her when the WSL begins. She's a defender. The goalkeeper who shot to fame during the tournament typically plays for Chelsea F. C. Women, alongside defender Lucy Bronze. She's previously spoken about how an eye condition once threatened to end her footballing career – thank goodness it didn't! Bronze revealed that she'd been playing with a fractured tibia throughout the Euros 2025 competition, showing the immense levels of mental resilience she has – something her other team, Chelsea, no doubt are well aware of. Defender Charles started her footballing journey off at Liverpool prior to joining Chelsea in 2020. Able to claim the slick accolade of being one of the most expensive midfielders in the women's game, Walsh broke the transfer record when she left Manchester City for Barcelona in 2022. She then moved over to Chelsea in 2024 for a pretty penny. The forward – who quite possibly has the best name ever? – is in good company over at Chelsea. She's a lifelong fan of the club, too. Another of the big names on the England squad, James plays for Chelsea as well as for her country (as does her brother, Reece James, over on the men's side of things). The reserve goalie unfortunately didn't make it onto the pitch during the Euros, so she'll no doubt be raring to go for her other club, Manchester City, when the league begins in September. Having powered through a knee issue, Greenwood was one of the Lionesses to score a winning penalty in the final. Elsewhere, she's a Manchester City defender. Midfielder Park has an impressive career with Manchester City, for whom she's made over 60 appearances. Along with three other England players, Hemp's 'day job' revolves around all things Manchester City – who will be playing Chelsea during the first week of September (!). Sadly Moorhouse (a goalie) remained in reserve for England, but she's a regular fixture on the pitch for Orlando Pride. Moorhouse isn't the only Lioness to play for a US team – Morgan, a defender, also has a Stateside career with Washington Spirit. Like Morgan and Moorhouse, defender Carter typically appears on field as part of the National Women's Soccer League in the US, playing for Gotham FC. When not repping her home country, Stanway is part of the German team Bayern Munich (or 'Bayern München' if you ask someone in/from Germany!).

England must ‘ride the wave' after early Euros setback, says Lotte Wubben-Moy
The Lionesses face the Netherlands on Wednesday in what is being billed as a must-win Group D encounter after the 2-1 defeat in Zurich on Saturday, when the Dutch secured an opening victory over Wales. England also lost their opener to France at the 2015 World Cup in Canada but went on to achieve what was then their best ever finish of third, a journey seven-time major tournament veteran Lucy Bronze has encouraged her team-mates to keep fresh in their minds. England defender Wubben-Moy said: 'I think the mood so far has been, 'OK, what next?' We know that the tournament isn't won or lost on day one and I think we're all mature enough, we've all got experience in different ways, shapes or forms. Heading into new a week! 🏴🇳🇱#Lionesses | @NuffieldHealth — Lionesses (@Lionesses) July 7, 2025 'I think Lucy said in 2015 they lost their first game to France and I think it's easy to forget that there have to be ups and there have to be downs in tournament football. I think it's how you ride that wave that really is indicative of the mood that will be the lasting one across the tournament.' Wednesday's critical clash is a meeting between the two most recent European champions, both coached to glory at their respective home tournaments by England's Dutch boss Sarina Wiegman. Wiegman's long-time right-hand man, Arjan Veurink, is set to leave her side after this competition to take charge of the Netherlands, succeeding Andries Jonker. But this particular opponent is special to more than just England's coaching staff. Wubben-Moy is also half-Dutch. She explained: 'My dad comes from the Netherlands, my whole half of my family, so it's a pretty special fixture. 'I made my debut for England at youth level against the Netherlands and we won that game. I think all through my career, that game against the Netherlands has always been a tough one. 'It's physical, it's tactically varied and it's a game that epitomises, for me, my heritage.' She added: 'We're quick to forget when you put an England badge on that actually all of us have mixed heritage and I think that needs to be celebrated. 'I definitely feel celebrated here with a Dutch coach, but I think also by my team-mates, all of us accepting our cultures and different varieties of life that come together and make up that England badge.' But make no mistake, Wubben-Moy has made one thing very clear to her travelling Dutch family. She added: 'I was just asked by the Dutch media who they'll be supporting and they'll definitely be supporting me. 'And what that means is the England team.'
