Perth Glory have re-signed 20-year-old duo Georgia Cassidy and Grace Johnston ahead of the Ninja A-League 2025-26 season.
Cassidy put pen to paper on a two-year contract extension, and will look to build on the 35 Ninja A-League appearances she has made to date for her hometown club.
Described by Glory as “one of the most highly-rated young central midfielders” in the Ninja A-League, Cassidy has represented Australia at Under-17 and Under-20 level as she continues her rise to prominence in Australian football.

Johnston, meanwhile, has signed a one-year deal after making 22 starts for Perth last season.
Like Cassidy, Johnston is a Perth native whose recommitment to the club aligns with Glory football director Stan Lazaridis’ aim to let local talent shine in the club’s Ninja A-League side.
“Georgia and Grace are two of the best young players in their respective positions in the country in my opinion,” he said.
“We are thrilled that they will continue to be mainstays in our (Ninja A-League) side.
“We are committed to giving local Perth players the opportunity to prove themselves at A-League level and Georgia and Grace have certainly seized their opportunities with both hands.
“We’re really excited to see them continue to develop while proudly representing their hometown club and I’m sure our members and fans are too.”
