Aston Villa have signed England goalkeeper Ellie Roebuck from Barcelona on a two-year deal.
The 25-year-old spent last season with the Liga F champions but reached a mutual decision to terminate her contract.
Roebuck appeared just twice for Barca, making her debut in December last year before a further appearance in February.
Before moving to Spain, Roebuck made 136 appearances for Manchester City and won seven major titles – the Women’s Super League as well as the FA Cup and League Cup on three occasions.
“We are delighted that Ellie will be joining our club,” said Aston Villa’s director of women’s football Marisa Ewers.
“She is an exciting addition to the team and is a player with a lot of experience who can help drive our performance levels.”
Roebuck has 11 England caps but is not part of the squad at Euro 2025 in Switzerland.
