The midfielder joined us on a permanent basis from Barclays Women’s Super League 2 side Birmingham City in September 2025, signing a two-year contract at King Power Stadium.
The 32-year-old arrived in Leicestershire as the second-highest appearance maker in Australian history having earned 163 caps for the Matildas since making her debut against North Korea in 2010.
The New South Wales native holds a wealth of experience accumulated over a 17-year professional career that has seen her represent clubs across Europe and the United States.
She began her career at hometown side Newcastle Jets in 2008 before moving to Canberra United, and in 2011 made her first switch to Europe with Danish side Fortuna Hjørring.
Emily’s career has since spanned some of the world’s most competitive leagues, with spells at Western New York Flash, Seattle Reign, and Chicago Red Stars, alongside stints in Germany with FFC Frankfurt and VfL Wolfsburg.
Her first experience of English football came during the 20/21 season with a move to West Ham United, where she opened her goal-scoring account against Manchester United in October 2020.
