Ipswich Town have signed New Zealand international full-back Grace Neville after her six-year spell at London City Lionesses.

She has 13 caps for her country starting in 2023 and played at the Paris Olympics, last season Neville helped London City secure promotion to the top flight.

Neville told londoncitylionesses.com: “I think Ipswich is a really ambitious club and the team feels ready for this step up to the second tier. Hopefully I can add my experiences to the group as well.

“Everyone has been really welcoming so far and I now can’t wait for that first game of the season to come around.”

Manager Joe Sheehan added: “Grace is a very experienced full-back who has recently played an important part in London City’s promotion to the Women’s Super League.

“We have admired the way Grace plays for a long time and we think she will add a lot of value to our group.”
