Super Falcons defender Ashleigh Plumptre has signed a new two-year contract with Saudi Women’s Premier League club Al-Ittihad Ladies, extending her stay until 2028.
Plumptre committed her future to the Jeddah-based side after establishing herself as one of the club’s key performers since arriving on a free transfer from English side Leicester City in September 2023.
The 28-year-old has enjoyed an impressive spell with the Tigers, contributing 15 goals and 19 assists in 41 appearances across all competitions.

The versatile defender is currently recovering from the foot injury that has kept her out of action since March.
As a result, she was left out of Nigeria’s squad for the upcoming 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations to allow her focus on a full recovery ahead of the new season.
Plumptre played a vital role in the Super Falcons side that lifted a record-extending 10th WAFCON title at the 2024 tournament, further cementing her status as one of the team’s most influential players.
