Leanne Ross on Linda Motlhalo, and her impact at the club:
“Linda made a huge impact on and off the pitch during her short time here at Glasgow City.
“Her infectious personality saw her become a popular figure in the dressing room and her performances on the pitch, including that assist for the title winning goal last season, were a joy to watch.
