Lewes have completed the signing of Gibraltar international Charlyann Pizzarello on a free transfer.
The Rookettes confirmed the news via an update on their official club website this evening.
Pizzarello has most-recently been playing her football in Spain with CD Guadalajara where she has enjoyed a short spell. The left-sided player has also turned out for Malaga City in the Spanish game. Pizzarello spent the first seven years of her senior career in her native Gibraltar where she represented both Lions Gibraltar and the Lincoln Red Imps.
After completing her move to Lewes, Pizzarello said “I’ve always known Lewes has been a community-orientated team with plenty of support, and it was the closeness and togetherness of the team that really attracted me.
“I knew about Lewes through Ellie Mason when she came to the Gibraltar national team camp. She told me about the club and it’s been at the back of my mind ever since. I did my research and found out about Equality FC, the only club to pay the men and women equally, and that we’re fan-owned. It’s an amazing ethos and I wanted to be part of it.”
Pizzarello is the 11th player to join Lewes over the summer.
