SCOTLAND INTERNATIONAL LISA EVANS RETURNS TO GLASGOW CITY

Glasgow City are thrilled to announce the return of Scotland international Lisa Evans to the club on a three-year-ideal.


A former Glasgow City player, Lisa spent four years at the beginning of her career at the club winning four SWPL titles, two Scottish Cups and two SWPL Cups during a hugely successful spell before moving to German side Turbine Potsdam in 2012.


Since then Lisa has been capped 109 times by her country and has won league titles with both Bayern Munich and Arsenal. In 2022 she moved to WSL side West Ham United before spending last season at newly promoted Bristol City.


Having won trophies with City, Bayern Munich and Arsenal we are delighted to welcome Lisa back both for her ability and versatility as a player but also for what she will bring to the club off the pitch too.


Lisa Evans on returning to Glasgow City:


“I’m absolutely buzzing to be back, it’s been a while and I know things have changed massively with the club but I’m really excited to be back.”


“Having started my journey in professional football with Glasgow City it was always something that I wanted to do, to come back and be part of it all again. I wanted to give back to the club everything that they have done for me.”


“I’ve had a great playing career in Germany and down south and I felt like I owed it in some way to come back and to help Glasgow City get success again.”


Quote from Glasgow City Head Coach Leanne Ross on signing Lisa:


"We are all excited to welcome Lisa back home to Glasgow City.”


"A product of our youth academy, Lisa played her way into the first team, and soon became a fans favourite with her pacey, energetic attacking style of play and ability to create and score goals."


"Having forged a successful career in the Frauen Bundesliga, WSL, and on the international stage, Lisa returns to City still a top talent, but also with a wealth of experience from her time in elite club and national team environments."


"With the ability to play full back, wing back or winger, Lisa’s quality, experience and versatility will be a major asset to the team for the season ahead. I am delighted Lisa has chosen to return to Glasgow City, I can’t wait to work with her once again and see the positive influence she can have on our players and environment. "
