July 10 (Reuters) - Women's Super League champions Manchester City have signed England defender Niamh Charles from Chelsea, City said on Friday.
• The 27-year-old has signed a three-year deal until June 2029
• The England international becomes City's second signing of the summer after Beth Mead.
• The defender is a five-times Women's Super League champion with Chelsea.
• The England international has 34 caps and four international trophies, including the 2025 European Championships, where she converted a penalty in the shootout victory over Spain.
• "I've seen from the outside and obviously played against City over the past few years, they've had great success this year, and I think what they're building as a team, the players and the staff, it's something I wanted to be a part of," Charles said.
