The Aston Villa midfielder will undergo immediate rehabilitation and is expected to be sidelined for several months.
- Aston Villa states she will be “on the sidelines” while she recovers, though no specific timeframe or diagnosis was disclosed.
- The injury occurred in the second half, around the 75th minute, following a challenge by Steph Catley; Baijings limped off the pitch but was able to walk under her own power.
- Baijings first joined Villa on a season-long loan in July 2024, but now has moved permanently. She had previously suffered a back injury and only made her full debut in January 2025.
- At 24 years old, Baijings has played for clubs such as Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen, SGS Essen, and Heerenveen, and she also represents the Netherlands at international level.
