The full Leicester City women's squad for Women's Super League 2024/25
By Jack Lacey-Hatton,

The Leicester City women's squad is looking to build on their last Women's Super League season – as they look to not just survive but push on.
Leicester are perhaps the hardest team to predict this time around. Moving on from ex-manager Willie Kirk’s shock dismissal won’t be easy, but the Foxes do at least possess a strong spine in their best XI, which should see them build on last season’s 10th-place finish. Janina Leitzig is a top-quality goalkeeper, while Sophie Howard – who has signed a new deal – is a rock-solid presence in defence.
Amandine Miquel left a long-term role at Reims to take this job and has wasted no time in getting to work with this squad. Noemie Mouchon and Shana Cossenotte both follow the boss from her former club in France.
But last season’s run to the FA Cup semi-finals showed what they are capable of. As a WSL team, they'll be kicking off in the competition once again at the fourth round stage, which starts in January.
The League Cup comes a little before, in October. Leicester are in a group with Bristol City, Brighton and Birmingham.
Now can they kick on and break into the mid-table pack in the Women's Super League? It’ll be tough but should be possible.
FourFourTwo has all the key information and details about the Arsenal women's squad for the following season, including previews of the key player to watch and the manager. Check out our guide below and find out more about all WSL squads here .
