Pike joins City Women ranks.

The attacking midfielder joins from fellow Barclays FAWSL outfit, Everton Women where she made 17 first team league appearances in her first 18 months with the Toffees.

Pike progressed through the Chelsea Youth Academy before making the switch to Merseyside to join Willie Kirk’s side in 2019.

The 20-year-old has featured heavily for the Young Lionesses throughout the early stages of her career having represented her country at Under-17, Under-18 and Under-19 level.

The attacking midfielder will bolster Matt Beard’s options in the middle of the park and City’s newest recruit could make her debut this weekend against Brighton and Hove Albion.

Head Coach Matt Beard said: “Molly is an exciting young English talent, who has proven she can perform at Barclays FAWSL level.

“She’ll add depth to our midfield options as we enter the back end of the season and I firmly believe she can add great quality to our product in the final third.

“I’m excited to get to work Molly and see the impact she can make on the squad.”

Pike added: “I’m really looking forward to getting going at Bristol City and seeing what the second half of the season brings.

“Bristol City is a club that is renowned for giving chances to young players and I hope I can make an impact on the team and help the club pick up the results needed.

“I’m looking forward to learning from such an experienced manager in Matt and I’m excited to get to work with my new teammates.”
