Ireland defender Savannah McCarthy has kicked off her bid to make this summer’s World Cup squad by joining Shamrock Rovers.
The former Galway centre-half is on her way back from a cruciate ligament injury that robbed her of a place in the qualification run-in last year.
And she is ready to stake her claim for an international return at Tallaght Stadium, where she will join fellow hopefuls such as Aine O’Gorman and Abbie Larkin.
