A Season That Comes With Heartbreak: Western United
While the fixture release brings joy to many, it also carries sadness. For the first time since joining the league, Western United will not take the field.
On 8 August 2025, Football Australia revoked the club’s licence due to financial instability, unpaid debts, and a FIFA transfer ban. The decision left players and staff without contracts, and fans without a team to cheer for. The PFA condemned the handling, calling it devastating for those whose livelihoods were at stake.
For now, Western United remains in conditional hibernation, with hopes that one day the club will return stronger. The league moves forward, but their absence will be felt every round.
Western United acknowledges today’s update from the APL confirming that the Club’s participation agreement will be placed into hibernation for the 2025/26 A-Leagues season.
