Inside Leah Williamson's glam lifestyle, from sponsorships with Gucci and Nike to friendship with Alex Scott
{by} Thesun.co.uk

Elegant on the pitch, stylish off it - Leah Williamson is one of football's leading players and fashionistas.

The Arsenal defender became a pop culture icon when she captained the Lionesses to Euros glory in 2022.

However, a cruel ruptured ACL injury back in April robbed her of the opportunity to lead her country out at the World Cup.

But now Leah has returned to training and is eyeing a comeback in the new year to spearhead the Gunners' title challenge in the WSL.

Since her heroics with the Three Lions, she has become a hot commodity reportedly raking in £4million.

Her bank balance boosted by deals with Gucci, Nike and Pepsi.

While the 26-year-old is also a regular feature on the red carpet, and recently attended the GQ Men of the Year Awards with pals Alex Scott, Chloe Kelly, and Mary Earps.

She's kind of a big deal
Although Arsenal and WSL fans would have known her stock, Williamson's grew during the Lionesses Euro 2022 campaign..

With the North London giants, she is said to earn around £150,000-per-year.

But it's in sponsorships where she has well and truly prospered.

Music drives her agenda
For every game she plays, music fan Leah makes a playlist.

Whether it's for Arsenal or England, she makes sure the kit man has it and the music she chooses features in the dressing room.

It's the perfect way to connect with her teammates and remember moments in her career.

"I love how music makes people feel, and how you can connect with people – most conversations I have with the girls come off the back of music," she told GQ.

"I like it because when you think back to key moments, you always remember the music that was playing."

ABBA's Does Your Mother Know was a particular favourite during the Euros.

"It's become a massive song for us," she recalled.

A month later, she addressed the United Nations' General Assembly in New York and made a plea to challenge gender stereotypes and level the playing field for girls around the world.

'You're my best friend'
Although she holds many friends in the game, it's BBC Sport presenter Alex Scott who seems to be her closest pal.

The pair are inseparable, whether it's going on holidays together or attending the same events and posing for the cameras.

It is believed they have been friends for around three years, after meeting on the women's football circuit.

Together they attended the Brit Awards, GQ Men of the Year Awards, and the Virgin Atlantic Attitude Awards, where they were joined by Scott's girlfriend Jess Glynne.

And Alex isn't afraid of making fun of her pal, in a light-hearted moment that showed how close the pair are.

At half-time during Arsenal's WSL match against Aston Villa, she interviewed Leah and cheekily encouraged her to share a funny story about a visit to receive her OBE at Windsor Castle.

Alex began: "Is this where I can tell everyone at home? Actually, you can actually. What went on with the outfit?"

"The outfit, yeah, my trousers split," she said, adding: "I received my OBE not in my best form, but no one knew about it until you just told the whole world, so thanks."

A laughing Scott replied: "I had to tell everyone, I had to tell everyone!"
