Jordan Nobbs has revealed that the chance to play regular football was the biggest factor in her decision to leave Arsenal for mid-table Aston Villa.
Nobbs, 31, won every domestic honour during a trophy-laden spell at Arsenal, including three WSL titles and four FA Cups. But her 12 years at the Gunners came to an end on Thursday when she completed a surprise transfer to Aston Villa, for a fee understood to be around £35,000.
The midfielder, who signed an 18-month deal, has won 69 caps for England but has not played for the Lionesses this season. Nobbs is already training with the Villans and could make her debut against Tottenham at Villa Park when the WSL returns next week.
