Ipswich Town sign former London City Lionesses full-back Neville | OneFootball

Ipswich Town have completed the signing of former London City Lionesses full-back Grace Neville on a free transfer.

The Tractor Girls announced the news via a post on their official club website this evening.

The 25-year-old right-back joins Ipswich Town after leaving former club London City Lionesses earlier this summer.

Neville was one of the original London City Lionesses after TUPE transferring to the club from former Barclays WSL2 side Millwall Lionesses in summer 2019. In her six seasons with The Pride, Neville featured regularly for the club, turning out for several different head coaches in the process.

On the international stage, Neville was on England’s radar in her youth. She later switched allegiances to New Zealand and she has been capped by The Ford Football Ferns on 13 occasions at senior level.

After joining Ipswich Town, Neville said “I think Ipswich is a really ambitious club and the team feels ready for this step up to the second tier. Hopefully I can add my experiences to the group as well.

“Everyone has been really welcoming so far and I now can’t wait for that first game of the season to come around.”

Neville is Ipswich Town’s sixth signing of the summer transfer window.
