West Ham United women’s team Captain Dagný Brynjarsdóttir has confirmed the wonderful news that she is expecting her second child.
The 31-year-old confirmed the news alongside the Club on her social media channels on Wednesday afternoon.
In an exclusive interview with West Ham TV, the Iceland international, who has been a West Ham United fan from a young age explained how excited she is to not only be adding to her own family, but also the West Ham United family too!
“From growing up supporting West Ham, to becoming the Club Captain and then bringing my son, Brynjar, into the West Ham family… I’m delighted to announce that there will be a new addition to the West Ham family next year!”
“I think it’s amazing how much the club supports me with my son. Not every club would let their kid come to the training ground and onto the pitch. I’m very grateful that he gets to have all of these experiences with me and because of that, he is a big West Ham fan today and will be the rest of his life.
“When Brynjar comes to the training ground it just feels like extended family. Everyone is so nice and calm and it’s just one big family - and I’m excited to be adding to that family!”
Since signing for the Hammers in January 2021, Brynjarsdóttir has been instrumental - featuring 65 times for the Club across all competitions, scoring 17 goals.
The midfielder will not feature throughout the 2023/24 season as she prepares to welcome her second child.
Everyone at West Ham United would like to congratulate Dagný and her partner Ómar on their fantastic news.
