RANGERS Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of Sarah Ewens from London City Lionesses, subject to international clearance.
The striker, who has spent her career playing both north and south of the border, becomes head coach Jo Potter’s fourth signing of the summer transfer window as the start of the league season approaches.
Born in Edinburgh, the forward joined local junior side Hutchison Vale before moving to fellow capital side Spartans, firing in an impressive goal tally of 42 goals in 54 appearances in three seasons with the club.
Her form saw her seal a move to Hibernian before a move to Celtic was to follow in 2016, with her goal rate continuing to flourish with 64 goals in 98 appearances. She was also the only player to score against every team in the 2019/20 SWPL season, winning both the SWF Scottish Cup and the SWPL Cup during her time in Scotland.
Ewens’ time down south began in 2021 when she made the switch to Women’s Championship side Birmingham City where she spent a season with the Midlands club, before agreeing to join her former side in July last year and finding the target on 12 occasions in 19 outings for the London club.
The forward has also represented her country at both Under-17 and Under-19 level, and was also called up to the Scotland senior side for the first time in April this year but missed out on an appearance in the camp due to injury.
The 31-year-old will now join up with the Light Blues for the upcoming season as Jo Potter strengthens her forward line further following the recent signing of Rio Hardy.
Speaking after making the move to Rangers, Ewens said: “I am delighted to be here. I have been really looking forward to getting this deal done so I am excited to get going.”
