England and Spurs forward Naz ruled out for 2025-26 with ACL injury
Tottenham’s Jessica Naz becomes the latest Women’s Super League player to suffer an ACL injury, ruling her out for the rest of the season.
Tottenham have confirmed that Jessica Naz will miss the rest of the 2025-26 season after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.
Naz suffered the injury during Spurs’ 2-1 over Aston Villa in the Women’s Super League on Sunday and will now require an operation on her right knee.
The 25-year-old has started in each of Spurs’ 10 WSL games this season, registering one assist, with the north London side sitting in fifth in the English top-flight.
Naz was also included in Sarina Wiegman’s most recent England squad, but was an unused substitute in their friendlies against Australia and Brazil.
This is the second time Naz has suffered an ACL injury after also missing the 2019-20 campaign with the same issue in her other knee.
She is also the second Spurs player to pick up the injury this season, after Maite Oroz, and the eighth overall, with Arsenal trio Manu Zinsberger, Katie Reid and Michelle Agyemang (on loan at Brighton) all sidelined with an ACL problem.
