Chelsea defender Cerys Brown has joined Barclays Women’s Championship club London City Lionesses on a permanent basis.
The Blues announced the news via a post on their official club website earlier today.
The 19-year-old defender initially joined London City Lionesses on a season-long loan deal in August. After making nine appearances for The Pride in the Barclays Women’s Championship, Brown has agreed to join the South Londoners on a permanent basis.
Brown is an up and coming talent. The player briefly appeared in the senior team at former club Chelsea while she is an England Under-19 international.
When speaking to London City Lionesses’ media team after completing a permanent move to Hayes Lane, Brown said “I honestly still can’t believe it. Since I’ve come here, everyone has made me feel so welcome, and I think I’ve become a better player for it.
“To be able to stay here and continue with everyone is a really good feeling.
“I just think the aspirations of everyone at this club is something I haven’t seen before.”
