Bristol City midfielder Carla Humphrey has signed a new contract with The Robins, keeping her at the Stoke Gifford Stadium until summer 2022.
The 23-year-old Brampton-born midfielder has impressed for Bristol City since joining the club from Arsenal in summer 2017.
With Humphrey’s contract set to expire this summer, manager Tanya Oxtoby has moved quickly to secure the player’s services for the next two seasons with the club have announced news of the midfielder’s new deal on their official website this morning.
The former England Under-23 international has missed a chunk of this season with a foot injury but she has since recovered and will be raring to go once the Barclays FA Women’s Super League resumes again in September. Humphrey made 11 starts for Bristol City before her injury in which she scored one goal, that strike coming against the London Bees in the FA Women’s Continental League Cup.
Humphrey struggled for game time at Arsenal in the early days of her career but enjoyed a fruitful loan spell with Doncaster Rovers Belles during the 2016 FA Women’s Super League 1 campaign. She again found herself out of favour upon her return to Arsenal and she made the move to Bristol City following more than a decade of service with The Gunners.
Since moving to the Stoke Gifford Stadium, Humphrey has started to show some impressive form and the player will be hoping to make a significant impact for The Robins when she makes her return next season.
