After completing her move to Sheffield United, Rogers said “I’m really excited. It’s a team I know a lot about and something I really wanted to be a part of and I’m just really excited to get going now.

“Every game against the team has been a tough game and you always knew it would be, it’s a team that works hard for each other. It’s a fresh start for me, I’m proud of what I’ve done, but I know I can do more and I want to bring those experiences in here.”
