  "account": "West Ham midfielder Keira Flannery has made her move to Charlton Athletic permanent after a successful loan spell with the club. The 20-year-old departed the Irons after a four-year stint, having joined Charlton in September 2025 on a season-long deal. Flannery, who began her career at Arsenal, had previously spent time on loan at Gillingham, Reading, and Sunderland. She made 17 appearances for Charlton during the 2025/26 season, featuring in all 22 league matches as they secured a third-place finish in the Women’s Super League 2. Despite suffering an ankle injury and missing their playoff final, Flannery played a significant role in Charlton's promotion to the WSL. Now 20 years old, Flannery leaves West Ham with a wealth of experience, having progressed from the Arsenal academy to her childhood club and represented England at youth levels. With the next chapter of her career ahead, Flannery can now build on her development since joining West Ham as a teenager.",
