Pompey Women Add Widdows

Blues swoop for striker

23 February 2019

Pompey Women are delighted to announce the signing of Jade Widdows from Chichester City.

The striker links up with former team-mate Alex Collighan at the PMC Stadium following her move from the fellow National League outfit.

Widdows turned out for her former side against the Blues twice this term – and was on the winning team on both occasions.

She has netted twice in 11 appearances for Pompey’s neighbours this season and is pleased to make the switch.

Widdows said: “Joining Portsmouth is a great opportunity for me to develop and grow as a player.

“I feel very privileged to be joining a wonderfully talented team of like-minded young women full of so much potential and being guided by such a positive, knowledgeable and inspirational manager.

"Joining Portsmouth is a great opportunity for me to develop and grow as a player."

“I’m looking forward to building strong connections with everyone and doing my best for the team for the remainder of the season.”

Blues boss Jay Sadler added: “I’m delighted to be able to welcome Jade to Pompey. She is an exceptionally talented striker who will bring a different dynamic to our front-line.

“I’ve been a big admirer of hers for some time now. Her energy, tenacity, and technical qualities suit this club’s ethos – both on and off the pitch – and I’m certain she will contribute straight away.

“A lot of players see a good culture at Pompey and a way of working to bring out the best. We aim to develop them as players, as well as individuals.

“With perseverance, I believe that Jade has all the qualities required to be a top player here.”
