Portsmouth have signed Republic of Ireland international midfielder Erin McLaughlin on a one-year contract with the option of an additional 12 months.

The 21-year-old joins from FAI WNL side Peamount United, with whom she made 63 appearances and scored 21 goals, winning the league title with them in 2023.

Boss Jay Sadler told portsmouthfc.co.uk: “I’m delighted that Erin, a player whose rapid development we have followed closely, has decided to join us at Pompey.

“Erin’s consistently impressive performances for Peamount and Ireland, at such a young age, have understandably caught the eye of many a club.

“She’s an excellent fit for the way we play, possessing strong technical ability, high pressing energy and a really good footballing brain.”
