Albion have signed attacking midfielder Bex Rayner for their WSL squad from Championship outfit Sheffield United.

The 24-year-old has played more than 100 times for the Blades and had a stint at Nottingham Forest.

She was part of the Doncaster Belles side which won the WSL 2 title ahead of second-placed Albion in 2017-18.

Zoe Johnson, managing director of women’s and girls’ football, described Rayner as “a standout player” in last season’s Championship as United finished seventh.
