Coventry United have completed the signing of Welsh international midfielder Charlie Estcourt.
The 23-year-old will move to the Butts Park Arena on 1 July when her contract with current club London Bees expires. Estcourt has signed a one-year pre-contract agreement with Coventry United.
The Red and Greens announced the signing of the midfielder in a post on their official club Twitter account earlier today.

Despite her young age, Estcourt will bring plenty of experience with her to new club Coventry United. The player was on the books at Barclays FA Women’s Super League club Reading in the early days of her career while she also had spells with both Bristol City and Charlton Athletic. Estcourt has 29 senior caps for her country to her name.
The midfielder was an ever-present for London Bees in this season’s FA Women’s Championship. She scored two goals for The Bees in home defeats to Durham and Sheffield United. Estcourt was one of just two London Bees players to feature in every league game throughout the campaign.
Estcourt becomes the second new arrival at Coventry United so far this summer. The player joins the FA Women’s Championship’s top goalscorer Katie Wilkinson in moving to the Warwickshire club.
