We are delighted to present the first group of players who will form part of the Tottenham Hotspur Women squad ahead of our historic debut season in the Women’s Super League (WSL).

Following our promotion from the FA Women’s Championship at the end of last season, the Club has been working hard to make preparations for an exciting new era in the top tier of the women’s game.

With the squad reporting today for the start of pre-season training, we can confirm the signing of seven new players. They’re joined by 11 members of last season’s promotion-winning squad in signing full-time professional contracts, with further additions expected in the coming weeks as the countdown to the start of the 2019/20 season continues.

All player signings remain subject to FA confirmation.

Goalkeeper Becky Spencer joins us from West Ham United. A vastly experienced player in the Super League, the 28-year-old joined the Hammers last summer from Chelsea and made 16 appearances for them.

She began her career in the youth system at Watford before moving to Arsenal, later spending time on loan at Nottingham Forest and Gillingham. After playing for ASJ Soyaux in France, she returned to the UK and had two separate spells at Birmingham City, either side of a return to Arsenal. She’s previously been capped by England at Under-19 and Under-20 levels and received a call-up to the senior England squad in 2016.
