Uncommon card · No. 159984

The 2025–26 Women's Super League was the 15th season of the Women's Super League (WSL) since it was formed in 2010. It was the seventh season after the rebranding of the four highest levels of women's football in England. The season began on 5 September 2025 and ended on 16 May 2026. On 16 June 2025, it was announced that the WSL would be expanding to 14 teams from the 2026–27 season. As a result, the 2025–26 WSL2 season promoted two teams (Birmingham City and Crystal Palace), while the bottom WSL team, Leicester City, played in a promotion/relegation play-off against the 3rd placed WSL2 side, Charlton Athletic, on 23 May 2026. A loss on penalties saw Leicester City relegated after a five-year stint in the division. Chelsea entered the season as defending champions, having won their sixth consecutive and eighth overall title the previous season. However, they were dethroned after six years by Manchester City, who won their first WSL title in a decade (since 2016) and their second overall.
