Lexi Lloyd-Smith: Striker joins Crystal Palace on three-year deal

Crystal Palace have signed England Under-23s striker Lexi Lloyd-Smith on a three-year deal.

Lloyd-Smith, 23, was WSL2’s top scorer last season, netting 23 times in 48 appearances for Bristol City.

She will be playing in the top flight for the first time with the Eagles, who finished runners-up in the second tier last year to secure their return to the Women’s Super League.

Palace manager Jo Potter said Lloyd-Smith is a “real talent” who “showed us all what she could do in the WSL2 last season”.

Lloyd-Smith said she was happy to return to her south London roots.

She added: “I know I’m going to be playing for something more now – my roots, where I’m from. I’ll always be proud to be from Peckham. It means everything.”

Lloyd-Smith’s arrival continues a summer of strengthening for Palace on their WSL return, following the signing of Lionesses striker Bethany England earlier this week.
