The Manager has also offered Renaye Best, Chidubem Arinze and Asiah Janny the opportunity to move up from the Under-16s team.

Shannon Turner and Ellie McFarlane will continue their rehabilitation from long-term injuries with the club.

Released

Long-serving attacker Mariam Mahmood is set to depart The Hawthorns this summer.

‘Maz’ earned her breakthrough from the youth side in 2021, becoming a popular member of the group over the last four years. She went on to make more than 80 first-team appearances in blue and white, enjoying her most prolific seasons in 2022/23 and 2023/24.

ETC graduate Izzie Whittick will also leave the Baggies, while Maddie Oliver has returned to Manchester City after her dual registration contract concluded. 

Everyone at the football club would like to wish all departing players the very best of luck in their future careers.
