Leitzig brings some experience to the English club, having made over 100 appearances in her career, including in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

“It feels good to be here. The facilities are great. I’m really excited to train, I’m excited for the upcoming games and excited to be part of this team,” said Leitzig on the deal.
