Belgian international Kassandra Missipo has joined Sunderland on a two-year contract following her spell with Italian side US Sassuolo.
AISunderland have snapped up Belgian midfielder Kassandra Missipo on a two-year deal - and frankly, it's a tidy bit of business.
The 28-year-old arrives from US Sassuolo, where she racked up 22 appearances in Italy's Serie A Women last season, bagging two goals and chipping in with an assist. Not bad for a midfield engine.
Missipo's CV reads like a European tour brochure. She's turned out for KAA Gent and RSC Anderlecht in her native Belgium, plus FC Basel in Switzerland, before heading south to Italy, WSL Full-Time reports.
On the international front, she boasts 78 caps for Belgium with three goals to her name. That's serious pedigree.
Missipo herself said she's proud to join the club and sees her stints in Switzerland and Italy as stepping stones to this moment. She's eager to link up with her new teammates and can't wait for the season ahead.
Sunderland fans will hope her continental know-how translates nicely to English football.
