On social media, she posted: "This is the club I’ve been a fan of my whole life and a player for since I was eight years old, so today feels like a big day. I'm incredibly grateful to my teammates and the staff who have helped me to this point in my life and the fans who have shown me support no matter where I have been.

"However, it is time for me to move on and I’m excited to pursue a new goal. I’m sad to say goodbye but looking forward to the next step. Thankyou the Reds"

The goalkeeper had a spell at Birmingham City in the 2021-22 campaign, followed by a year at Everton last campaign where she featured in eight top-tier games keeping three clean sheets against Leicester, Tottenham and West Ham.
