Ninja A-League Women head coach Geoff Abrahams agreed the championship-winning experience would be a great addition. “Sarah is an experienced goalkeeper who brings a strong mentality and a real understanding of what is required to be successful in this competition,” he said. “She’s been part of a Championship-winning environment and knows the level of hard work, resilience and consistency that is required across a season. We have a young and exciting group, so having someone of Sarah’s experience around the squad will be really important.”
Langman said she was excited to return to familiar surroundings.
“It’s special for me to be moving back to Western Sydney. The Wanderers were the first club I moved to when I moved interstate,” she said.
“Personally, I want to return from my injury and get back to playing at my best, and Western Sydney has the foundations to allow me to do that. I learnt that winning a Championship requires more than just talent — it requires hard work, dedication, teamwork and resilience. I’m looking forward to bringing those experiences with me and doing everything I can to help the team this season.”
