Anna Patten joined Aston Villa on a permanent basis during the summer of 2023.

The defender put pen-to-paper on a three-year contract following two separate loan spells with the club.

Patten first joined Villa on a short-term loan in 2022 before re-joining from Arsenal for the entire 2022/23 campaign.

The 24-year-old made 33 appearances in all competitions across two seasons and has now committed her future to claret & blue.
