Southampton midfielder Primus signs new deal | OneFootball

Southampton midfielder Atlanta Primus has signed a new one-year contract with the club ahead of the 2025/2026 season.

The Saints announced the news via a post on their official club website earlier today.

The 28-year-old midfielder joined Southampton in summer 2023 after opting to leave former club London City Lionesses at the end of her contract. The Saints acquired her services after she starred for the Jamaican national team at the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia and New Zealand 2023. Primus was very much the standout performer for The Reggae Girlz as they battled bravely at the tournament.

Primus made 19 appearances in all competitions for Southampton in her first season at St Mary’s Stadium. She then joined The Saints’ Barclays WSL2 rivals Charlton Athletic on loan for the whole of last season.

Some may have wondered whether Primus’ time as a Saint was over, however, the player has agreed to sign a new one-year contract and begin the new era under recently-appointed head coach Simon Parker.

After signing on again at St Mary’s Stadium, Primus said “I’m really happy to have re-signed, it’s an exciting time ahead and I’m really looking forward to the new season.”

Further Southampton squad news will be announced in due course.
