England U-19 international forward Missy Goodwin has joined Leicester City from Aston Villa for the rest of the season.

Goodwin played for the academy sides at Birmingham City and then Aston Villa, before making her senior debut for Villa last November in a Conti Cup victory over Sheffield United.

She has also represented England at various youth levels, including the Under-19s.

Goodwin told LCFCTV: “It’s really exciting. It’s been good to get going. It’s a great environment and the facilities speak for themselves.

“I just think it’s a club that has got great ambitions and the process that they have been through so far just to get into the Super League is fantastic and it’s something that I couldn’t wait to join.”
