It's a full circle moment for Leicester-born Rachel Williams, as she signed for the Foxes earlier today on a permanent deal. The player made the move from Manchester United in the North-West back to the Midlands, returning to the club where she started her footballing career aged twelve.
Williams is a hugely experienced forward and prolific goalscorer. She currently sits 11th in the all-time WSL top scorers list with 50 goals to her name, having played at a variety of clubs across the WSL, including Birmingham City, Chelsea, Notts County, and similar to new team-mate Ash Neville, Tottenham Hotspur.
