Aston Villa defender Sarah Mayling has joined Leicester City on loan until the end of the season.
The right-sided full-back made 109 appearances for Villa and scored three goals after joining the club for a second spell in 2021, having been part of its academy set-up between 2014-16.
However, her playing time this season had been limited by manager Natalia Arroyo preferring a back three.
Leicester sit ninth in the Women’s Super League table, one place and four points behind Villa, after 11 games.
Leicester, led by Rick Passmoor, are looking to add experience during this month’s transfer window and saw Mayling, who has also played for Birmingham City, as fitting the bill.
