Hammers in a dash to capture Daly

West Ham United have confirmed the signing of Rachel Daly on a loan deal from Houston Dash.

The versatile England international has proved to be equally effective at full-back on in a wide attacking position during a career which has seen her glean 35 caps.

The 28-year-old has previously represented the likes of Leeds United, Lincoln Ladies, Los Angeles Strikers and LA Blues. She becomes the Hammers eighth summer signing and is expected to be involved in Sunday’s FA Women’s Super League opener with Tottenham Hotspur at The Hive (2pm).
