Birmingham City have signed former Leicester City midfielder Baker

Baker joins Birmingham City just days after leaving her former club. She signed a three-year deal with the Blues.

The midfielder came through Leicester City’s academy system and made her senior debut for the club aged 16 in an FA Women’s Continental Tires League Cup match against Manchester City in January 2022. Baker made 19 appearances for the Foxes in the Barclays Women’s Super League and she scored her only league goal in a 1–0 win at Brighton & Hove Albion in the 2022/2023 season.

After joining the Blues, Baker said: “I’m really happy to be here and I can’t wait to get started. The club’s ambitions match mine and I’m one to thrive and do well, not just for myself but for the team.

“I’m very excited, I have new beginnings and I can’t wait. I’m excited to meet everyone, play football and do my job.”

Baker becomes Birmingham City’s first signing of the summer transfer window.
