Ireland international Jess Ziu is set for another lengthy spell on the sidelines after sustaining a second anterior cruciate ligament injury in as many years. 

Dubliner Ziu's club West Ham have confirmed the blow, which is set to keep her out of contention for the Euro 2025 play-offs and the majority, if not the entirety, of the Women's Super League campaign.
