Seven players to leave Southampton this summer | OneFootball

Seven players will leave Southampton this summer when their contracts at St Mary’s Stadium come to an end.

The Saints confirmed their end of season departure list via a post on their official club website this afternoon.

It has been revealed that Atlanta Primus, Tara Bourne, Aimee Palmer, Kiera Sena, Isabel Watts, Ella Pettit and Esta Roberts will all be leaving Southampton at the end of the month.

Jamaican international attacker Primus is arguably the most high-profile departure with the player having captained the Southampton side. Defender Bourne and midfielder Palmer have also made significant contributions over the last couple of seasons.

Watts, Pettit and Roberts have all come through the Southampton academy system while Sena’s time on the South Coast has been disrupted by injury.

Southampton had a solid season in Barclays WSL2 in 2025/2026. The Saints took 35 points from their 22 matches as they secured a fifth-place finish. Growth will be expected next season with the club still keen to secure Barclays Women’s Super League football in the future.

Southampton were promoted to Barclays WSL2 in 2021/2022 but they have struggled to push hard for another promotion to the top tier. The club finished seven points behind the play-off spot this season.
