Everton have signed Spain Under-23 winger Ornella Vignola from Liga F side Granada.

    The 20-year-old is the second signing made by the Women’s Super League side, following the arrival of Dutch midfielder Rosa van Gool.

    Vignola scored three times and assisted a further three goals in 28 league appearances for Granada last season and has gone on to net four times in her last three games for Spain Under-23s.

    The winger, who started her career with Barcelona, said: “The English league is well known for its competitiveness and I’m really looking forward to making my debut. I am super excited about this new challenge.

    “It is a great opportunity for me. I am really looking forward to getting to know Brian and the way he works. I hope I can get a lot of minutes under him and be a key part of this team.”

    Everton boss Brian Sorensen added: “She is one of the most exciting upcoming players and is crucial to my plans for next season.

    “She is a direct forward, who is not afraid to take her marker on and is a joy to watch when in full flow.”
