Brighton’s 2025/26 season was scattered with highs and lows, but the one aspect that remained a constant was their unwavering belief in the project.

The Seagulls’ Women’s Super League campaign started off relatively strong with early victories against West Ham and Everton; however, injuries to several key players caused early selection struggles.

This, compounded by Brighton’s failure to be ‘more decisive in both boxes’ as put by head coach Dario Vidošić, saw the Seagulls suffer 1-0 defeats to Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal either side of a League Cup 2-1 loss to West Ham in October.

Matters became yet more testing when starting striker Michelle Agyemang suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury while on international duty, with then-20-year-old Carla Camacho becoming the new No. 9.
