Wales' Woodham joins Crystal Palace on loan

Wales defender Lily Woodham has joined Crystal Palace on loan from Seattle Reign until the end of January.

Palace gained promotion into the Women's Super League (WSL) last season - with former Bristol City and Reading left-back Woodham joining international teammates Elise Hughes and Josie Green in the top-flight.

Crystal Palace head of women’s football Grace Williams commented: “We are thrilled to welcome Lily to the team for the first half of our season.

“She is an incredibly talented player, and we’re confident she will make a big impact here with her WSL experience.”

Woodham said: “I’m super excited, I can’t wait to get going with the season.

“I have met the team and the staff, and everyone has been lovely, so I am buzzing!”

Woodham's deal runs until 31 January, 2025.
