ENGLAND U23 internationals Kim Dixson and Lizzie Edwards along with ex-England U19 international Bonnie Horwood have put pen to paper for Watford Ladies after having spent their pre-season with the club.

The three midfielders are the first signings of the summer for manager Sian Williams as she looks to build on her team for the new campaign.

"They each bring with them excellent qualities" commented Williams.

"I can see them combining well with each other and the rest of our squad.

"They have all played for several years within the junior England set-up so are used to and thrive upon high-pressure situations.

"All three girls are ambitious for the club and for their individual progress within the national squads and it is this hunger to succeed that we like to foster here.

"I am very pleased to have Bonnie, Lizzie and Kim on board - they will add composure and creativity to our squad and all three have good work rates."
