A legacy at 26 - how Hemp has grown at Man City
· Sports · BBC Sport
Manchester City forward Lauren Hemp marked her 200th appearance for the club with a standout performance in a 3-1 victory over newly promoted Birmingham City. The England international became only the fourth player in City history to reach the double-century milestone, joining Steph Houghton, Keira Walsh, and Demi Stokes. Hemp has scored 74 goals across her eight years at the club and helped secure six major trophies, including a domestic double last season under manager Andree Jeglertz. She has also created more chances from open play than any other player in the history of the Women's Super League. Jeglertz praised her enduring enthusiasm for the game, noting that her legacy at the club is already firmly established.
Why it matters
The milestone underscores Hemp's status as one of Europe's top forwards and a foundational player for Manchester City as they defend their Women's Super League title.
