In a bigger edition, we interview last season’s Hammer of the Year Viviane Asseyi to discuss her remarkable 2024/25 campaign, how a conversation with manager Rehanne Skinner inspired her last term and her memories of scoring in our historic WSL victory over the Gunners in February 2024.
Also on target on that afternoon at Chigwell Construction Stadium was Hawa Cissoko, and she is the first interviewee in our new series, Irons Icons, in which we speak to former women’s team players who made a huge impact on and off the pitch during their time in Claret and Blue.
Cissoko talks about her memories of making the move to east London during the COVID-19 pandemic, her memorable goal against Tottenham Hotspur and how West Ham will always be the ‘Club of her life’ - plus much more!
The former Irons defender played alongside current West Ham left-back Verena Hanshaw when they were both at Italian outfit AS Roma, and we spoke to Hanshaw about her Hammers teammates, which you can also read in the first edition of 2025/26.
Meanwhile, there are words from manager Skinner and captain Katrina Gorry ahead of the first home game of the campaign, plus we take a look at Friday’s opponents, analysing the key players to look out for, as well as their transfer business over the summer.
We also hear from the West Ham United Foundation and how they have once again come together with R;pple Suicide Prevention Charity for their annual five-a-side football tournament.
