Leah Williamson receives another accolade with Lionesses star included on 2024 Young Power List alongside Arsenal club-mate Bukayo Saka

The Arsenal duo have found their names included in the first-ever Sunday Times Young Power List. The awards are given to sports stars, actors and artists who have dominated their respective fields across the UK and Ireland.

Upon receiving the award, the Lionesses star - who had led them to glory after 56 years at the Women's Euro 2022 - shared word of advice for young girls who dream of making it big in women's football.

She said, "{lay football as often as you can for as long as you love it. It’s a simple bit of advice but it will go a long way in your journey to becoming a professional footballer. The best career advice I’ve ever received is to just be true to who you are. Always believe in yourself and never take no for an answer."

Alongside Williamson, Arsenal men's team star Bukayo Saka was also conferred with the honour having experienced a splendid season with the Gunners in the current campaign. After getting named on the list, the England star said, "One of the most simple things I was told by my first coach that I really liked was, ‘If you don’t shoot, you don’t score’."

The Gunners' women's team will be next seen in action against league leaders Manchester City in a Women's Super League clash on Sunday while Mikel Arteta's men take on Bournemouth a day before in the Premier League.
