A Debut to Remember

Southampton's Mary Bashford didn't just show up for her first BWSL2 season - she absolutely bossed it. The 21-year-old midfielder bagged eight goals, finishing as the club's top scorer and picking up both the Players' Player of the Season and Coaches' Player of the Season gongs for good measure.

Fantasy Gold

For those who spotted her early, congratulations - you're basically a football genius. Bashford racked up 125 Fantasy points across her debut campaign, landing 11th among all midfielders. Not bad for someone most managers probably ignored at the start, as WSL Football reports.

Still Just Getting Started

At only 21, Bashford earned a nomination for the BWSL2 Rising Star award. The scary part? She's likely to get even better.

Price Tag Reflects the Hype

Now valued at £7.5m - the third-highest among midfielders - she's no longer a hidden gem. But with performances like last season's, she could still be a bargain.
