Ipswich Town Women have made the loan signing of Scotland U-23 central defender Kenzie Weir from Everton until the end of the season.

She made her senior debut for the Toffees in January 2022, and has since had loan moves to Lewes and Glasgow City.

Weir told itfc.co.uk: “The conversations in the lead up to the move have been great and I’m really excited to be here now.

“I love defending and I also think I’m good with the ball at my feet. I’m quite tall as well so hopefully I can contribute a couple of goals from set pieces while I’m here.

Technical Director, Sean Burt, said: “We’re delighted to have Kenzie join us on loan until the end of the season.

“To attract a player with her level of experience and background in elite environments is huge for us.

“She brings composure, quality and a real understanding of what it takes to compete at a high level, which will be invaluable for us in the second half of the season.

“Her professionalism and mentality will raise standards around the group and we’re really looking forward to seeing her on the pitch.”
