Celtic FC Women welcome second summer addition as Amy Richardson signs for the Hoops | OneFootball

Celtic FC Women are pleased to announce the signing of talented youngster Amy Richardson, who becomes the Hoops’ second summer recruit.

The 18-year-old makes the move to Paradise, signing a three-year deal with the club after making the move from south of the border.

The left-sided defender, who has mainly occupied the full-back position, joins the Celts having spent time in the Academy set-up of Women’s Super League side, Everton.

Alongside her time spent in the Academy and at times training with the first-team, Richardson has also picked up experience at senior level.

Last campaign, she spent the season with Liverpool Feds in the FA Women’s National League North on a dual registration from the Merseyside club.

In recent years, the defender has also picked up plenty of experience on the international stage, representing Wales at youth level, most recently being called up for the Under-19 squad.

Elena Sadiku knows the player from her time spent with the English side, and the Celtic Head Coach made the move to bring the talented full-back to Glasgow as her second signing of the summer.

Commenting on the move, Elena Sadiku said: “Amy is a really good young player who has the potential to become great with her skills and the mentality of being the best she can be every day.

"I have already coached her during my time at Everton so it’s going to be great to have her in the team and see her develop in our environment."
