Why it matters for West Ham United Women
Oona Siren has become one of the most influential players in the squad since arriving from Norwegian side LSK Kvinner in September 2024. She is calm in possession, intelligent without the ball, and relentless in her work rate.
What comes next?
The new deal comes at an exciting time for the club following the appointment of Rita Guarino as head coach. Keeping a player of Siren’s quality provides an important foundation to build upon. Siren spoke of her happiness at remaining with West Ham, feeling settled in east London and enjoying every aspect of her time at the club. She praised the people around the club, highlighting the environment that has helped her continue developing both on and off the pitch. The midfielder has developed into a player her teammates can rely on every single week. The move has proved to be an excellent piece of recruitment by West Ham. Siren adapted impressively to the Women’s Super League, becoming one of the team’s most dependable performers. Every successful team needs balance in midfield, and Siren brings this to the West Ham side. She rarely panics when receiving possession, constantly scanning the pitch and looking for the best option. The club's decision to offer Siren a new contract demonstrates how highly she is regarded, not just for what she has already achieved, but also for the role she can play in the years ahead.
