Southampton have brought in two forwards in Emma Harries from West Ham and Ruby Tucker, formerly of Aston Villa.

Striker Harries is and England U-23 international and made 60 WSL appearances during spells with the Hammers and Reading.

Harries told southamptonfc.com: “I would say I’m very hard-working, on and off the ball. I like to run in behind, I’m very fast and powerful, I always give 110% so I can definitely promise the Saints fans that.”

Ruby Tucker is an England U-19 international who had spent her whole career to date at Aston Villa.

Tucker said of her transfer: “It’s really exciting, I can’t wait to get started. To sign my first professional contract is a dream come true really for me and my family, and to be at this club is just amazing.

“I spent eight, nine years at Villa, learning a lot from training with the first team last year, so I can’t wait to bring that into playing at Southampton.”
