Notts County Ladies have completed the sale of England defender Alex Greenwood to Liverpool Ladies 'for a significant' fee.

Alex has been a pinnacle player for the Lady Pies since arriving at the club in 2015, helping the side respectfully finish two successful campaigns and also most recently helping Notts reach Wembley in the F.A Cup.

The 22-year-old featured also featured in the Continental Tyres Cup Final last season.

Former FA WLS 1 champions, Liverpool have added Alex Greenwood in order to strengthen their squad after making an additional six signings, and Scott Rogers was keen to sign the Lioness and liverpool born left-back.

"This is a fantastic move for me and I am really enthusiastic about the new season, I had a great year at Notts County but this represents an exciting, new challenge and one that I am really looking forward to." Alex told the official site.

The fee, although undisclosed is believed to be a club record sale for Notts County who 'reluctantly' accepted the offer from Liverpool.

"We received a significant bid from Liverpool, which was close to our valuation for the player, and considering her wish to leave we reluctantly accepted the offer," Notts County Ladies chief executive Matthew Alexander said.

"Notts County wishes Alex all the best for the future."

    gutted but would rather her leave for a good fee than for free.

    hope the ladies manager puts the money to good use or we may struggle more. first year and last we struggled at times so we need to keep our better players or sign in players of equal ability.

    If it enables them to sign better players its a good decision, Rick seems to know how to build a side and I am sure the money will be put to good use.

    It does make sense to allow us to complete, there's some good players available on free deals - who could do a job as left back.
