Ipswich Town Women have completed their fourth signing of the January transfer window with the arrival of centre-back Kenzie Weir on loan from Women’s Super League side Everton. The 22-year-old joins the Blues as they look to bolster their defensive options for the second half of the season.

Weir progressed through Everton’s academy before making her senior debut in January 2022 and signing her first professional contract later that year. She has since gained valuable experience through loan spells at Lewes and Scottish Women’s Premier League club Glasgow City.
At international level, Weir has represented Scotland at Under-16, Under-19 and Under-23 levels. She is also the daughter of former Scotland international David Weir, who enjoyed notable playing careers with Everton and Rangers.
