Al-Ittihad have recruited Ashleigh Plumptre from Leicester City which means that one of the stars of the women’s game has made the switch from the home of the Foxes in England’s East Midlands to join the Tigers in the port of Jeddah.

Plumptre is a former England youth international who switched allegiance to Nigeria and was one of the stars of the World Cup that ended last month with the Africans losing to England after a penalty shootout in the knockout stages. “(I am) grateful to have signed for Al-Ittihad,” Plumptre reportedly said. “I am excited to start this journey alongside some incredible human beings.

The Frenchman’s goal-poaching senses were on full alert after latching onto Haroune Camara’s inviting pass in the box, chipping over a committed defender, and kneeing the ball past a flapping Paulo Vitor in the Akhdoud goal.
