Chloe McMahon signs for Argyle

Argyle Women have signed attacker Chloe McMahon.

The 18-year-old, who is studying at Plymouth University, featured for several years in the youth set-up at Bristol City, playing for the Robins from Under-14 to Under-21 levels.

Alongside her club career in Bristol, McMahon played for Wales at Under-15s, -16s, -17s and -19s level in multiple competitions.

“I've been training for the last few weeks and I'm starting to get settled,” Chloe told Argyle TV. “Everyone has been really welcoming as well, which has been nice. I'm doing physiotherapy at the University of Plymouth, and it's been good so far. I’m just finding my feet now but it's nice to play football as well alongside it.

“I enjoyed my time in Bristol and all the opportunities I've had so far in football have been good. I think it taught me lots of different life experiences and helped me as well to deal with the pressure.

“I just want to show what I can do and play football; that's the main point. This club is great, and I want to see how far I can get.”

Meanwhile, Kelsey Blight has decided to leave Argyle to pursue a footballing opportunity elsewhere.

The midfielder was one of three under-16s to step up into the first-team squad this season after coming through the Academy pathway at Home Park, featuring four times off the bench since August.

Blight leaves Home Park with all of Argyle wishing her the very best.

Head Coach Perks said: “We’re delighted to have Chloe sign with the club. She’s been training with the side for several weeks now and knows what we want from her but is also familiar with the squad and how we want to play.

“We’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Kelsey as she's been part of this club for a long period. She’ll be moving on to pursue first-team football opportunities elsewhere, and we wish her all the best on her journey ahead. The door will always be open for her.”
