Sheffield United have snapped up teenage full-back Sophie Harwood from Arsenal on a season-long loan deal, as confirmed by WSL Full-Time.
The 18-year-old penned professional terms with the Gunners earlier this year and made two senior appearances in the Barclays Women's Super League last season. Not bad for someone who can't even legally rent a car yet.
Harwood has already pulled on an England shirt at various youth levels, including the Under-20s - so she's clearly not hanging about.
The move is all about one thing: game time. Harwood is eager to rack up regular first-team minutes in Barclays WSL2 with the Blades.
She's reportedly buzzing about the switch and has praised the warm welcome from her new teammates and staff. Nothing like a good Yorkshire greeting to settle the nerves.
