Kerys Harrop signs new contract

We are delighted to announce that Kerys Harrop has signed a new contract with the Club that runs until 2023, with the option to extend for a further year.

The 31-year-old defender has made 43 appearances in all competitions after joining from Birmingham City in July 2020, including 36 starts.

One of the league’s most experienced players with over 168 WSL appearances to her name, Kerys has played a major role in our success this season.

The former Blues captain, who spent 20 years with the West Midlands side, has become a key figure in our backline since her arrival and shown her versatility operating at both centre-half and full-back.

Kerys said: “I’m excited. There’s a fantastic group of girls here - we’ve got a really good team spirit and culture. The Club is going in the right direction and it’s a direction that matches my own values.

“You can see how much the Club as a whole is investing in the women’s team, it’s fantastic really.

“It’s amazing to see how far the game has come in the last ten years. We want to keep challenging with the top teams and hopefully, one day we will achieve a Champions League spot.”
