Lionesses sign new goalkeeper

Women's Football FA Women's Championship News - 2 Feb 2021

London City Lionesses have today confirmed the signing of goalkeeper Nina Wilson in the January transfer window.

Wilson had most recently played professionally in the Icelandic League for Fjardabyggd/Höttur/Leiknir, with previous spells playing for Watford FC Women, Lewes FC and Brighton & Hove Albion FC. She has also previous represented England with the College National Team in 2017-18 and will be available for selection for this weekend's match versus Durham Women.

The 21-year-old was first choice goalkeeper for Watford FC in the 2019-20 season - starting 14 out of 19 games and keeping five clean sheets - with her side challenging for promotion to the FA Women's Championship before the season was delayed due to the covid-19 pandemic.

Nina Wilson said: "I am ready to make the next step in my career and I can think of nowhere better than with London City Lionesses. Everyone I talked to before joining the club had only good things to say and I was excited by meeting people from LCL. I can't wait to get going and hope to make an impact on the pitch as soon as possible."

First Team Head Coach Melissa Phillips added: "I'm tremendously excited about the addition of Nina to our squad. She brings a tenacious work ethic coupled with a desire to improve her game daily. She has already added value to our culture and I'm excited to see her thrive within the environment now that she's on board."
