ROWE PENS NEW DEAL WITH READING WOMEN

READING Women winger Rachel Rowe has penned a new deal to keep her at the club until

June 2024.

Rowe began her Royals journey in 2015, joining from Swansea City, and helped the club to win promotion from the Championship to the Women’s Super League in her first season as the side became a professional club in the process.

Despite suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury at the start of the 2018/19 season, Rowe has recovered brilliantly and has now made more than 100 appearances in her six-year spell at the club.

Rowe has been an important figure in Kelly Chambers’ team this season, and is currently the joint top scorer for Reading in the 2020/21 campaign with four goals

Manager Chambers said: “I am delighted that Rowey has committed her future to

Reading.

“She is a player that has developed so much over the years, on and off the pitch.

“Even though she has had an up and down season with illness and injury, I believe 2020/21 has been some of her best football yet.

“What is exciting, is I know there is still more to come.

“Rowey has grown a love for this club like many of the others and has become a big part of it.

“I’m excited to keep working with Rowey and to see what else there is to come.”
