Barclays Women’s Championship club Crystal Palace have completed the double signing of defenders Leanne Cowan and Emily Wilson-White.
The Eagles confirmed the transfers this afternoon via a squad update on their official club website.
Left-back Cowan spent last season with Crystal Palace before leaving the club at the end of the campaign. The defender made 15 appearances for the South Londoners in the Barclays Women’s Championship.
Wilson-White arrives at Hayes Lane following a spell with FA Women’s National League Southern Premier Division club Bridgwater United. The player has made 15 appearances for the Somerset club in this season’s FA Women’s National League Southern Premier Division, helping them to battle bravely against relegation to the fourth tier.
After completing her Crystal Palace return, Cowan said “It’s amazing to be back – part of me feels like I’m home again.
“It’s such a nice feeling coming in and being able to work with a team who I know and who have impacted my career so positively. I can’t thank them enough for having me back in.
“Everyone’s just been so welcoming. I’m very excited to be back and I can’t wait to get going again properly.”
After sealing her move to Hayes Lane, Wilson-White added “This is an amazing opportunity for me and luckily, at the club I support. I can’t wait to get started.”
The pair could be involved for Crystal Palace when they travel to Sheffield United on Sunday.
