London City Lionesses have had one of the biggest summers in women’s football, but their story goes far beyond the arrival of Alexia Putellas.
Since Michele Kang took over the club in 2023, LCL have gone from Championship side to WSL newcomers, finishing seventh in their first season in the top flight.
