Albion youngster Libby Bance has signed a contract extension with the club.

The 20-year-old midfielder will look to impress in the coming season.

Phillips said: “We are thrilled that Libby has extended her contract.

“She has come through the academy at youth level and it’s fantastic to see her excel in a first-team environment.

“She is a talented young player with an incredible level of dedication and determination, and she thoroughly deserves this opportunity.”
