Arsenal have signed Jamaica international full-back Taylor Hinds following the expiry of her contract with Liverpool.
Hinds is a former England youth international who later committed her international future to Jamaica, for whom she made her debut last year.
She leaves Liverpool after five years in which she clocked up 131 appearances in all competitions for the Reds.
Taylor’s Arsenal journey began at the age of 11 and after eventually breaking into the first team, she spent two and a half seasons with Everton.
Hinds told www.arsenal.com: I’m so proud to have signed for Arsenal. I want to push, compete and be winning trophies – and this club encompasses all of that both on and off the pitch. You can see what direction Arsenal is going in and everyone at the club wants to win.
“This is a full-circle moment for me and I’m grateful to come back to a place I called home when I was younger. I can’t wait to get started and to step out on the pitch at Emirates Stadium in front of all our incredible supporters.”
Head coach Renée Slegers said: “We’re delighted to welcome Taylor back to Arsenal. She’s a versatile player who has great experience from multiple seasons in the WSL with Liverpool, where she took on a leadership role. I’m excited to get started with Taylor on the training pitch and I’m sure our supporters will join me in welcoming Taylor back to the club.”
