Rosie Kmita leaves West Ham as Ellen White joins Women's FA Cup holders Manchester City
New Manchester City signing Ellen White

THE Women’s Super League was rife with transfer deals today, as West Ham announced the release of Rosie Kmita hours prior to Ellen White leaving Birmingham to join Manchester City.

The departures started on Wednesday night after newly promoted Manchester United released four players, Charlie Devlin, Naomi Hartley, Lucy Roberts and Ebony Salmon.

Keen to start the rebuilding process as early as possible, the Hammers followed suit 24 hours later by announcing that Kmita and the club had agreed to part ways.

I can now finally say I am a CITY player. Delighted doesn’t even cut it. I would like to firstly thank my amazing husband. I love you (and the cats of course) To my family for their support and love. To my agent, for making this happen. Can’t wait to get started! pic.twitter.com/A0vT5qDtEn
