Portsmouth Women have signed attacking midfielder Ella Rutherford on a one-year deal, with the club option of an additional 12 months.
Formerly an England youth international, Rutherford previously played her club football for Millwall Lionesses, Bristol City and had four years at Charlton Athletic, before helping Ipswich secure promotion to the WSL2 last season.
Pompey boss Jay Sadler told portsmouthfc.co.uk: “Ella is an experienced attacking midfielder with real pedigree, and bringing her to Portsmouth was an opportunity we couldn’t turn down.
“She’s a visionary player with the fight and determination to get back to her best after overcoming some major setbacks through injury.
“Off the pitch, she’s a fantastic character who will add a lot to the group, and on it, she has the quality and creativity to make a real impact.”
