Promising young talent Shannon Cooke joins the ranks at West Ham as their last signing in the January transfer window on a long term permanent deal.
The 22-year-old re-joins the Women’s Super League side after a four-year stint with Louisiana State University (LSU) in America’s college system where she captained the side in the last two seasons. Cooke made a total of 94 appearances in her college career in America and found the net nine times, as a defender.
She joins Paul Konchesky’s back line already armed with WSL experience with Arsenal on their penultimate match of the 2017/18 season, replacing Beth Mead in a win over Sunderland.
