Newcastle United Women's longest-serving player will leave the club at the end of the season.

Goalkeeper and club captain Grace Donnelly has made 140 appearances during her eight years with the Magpies.

"When I first joined Newcastle United Women, I wouldn't have believed you if you told me what I would go on to achieve," she said.

Announcing her departure, she gave a "massive thank you" to the club's fans as well as her teammates and family.
