Nigeria-eligible striker Rinsola Babajide has signed a new deal with Liverpool FC Women despite the club's relegation to the FA Women's Championship, the Reds have reported on their official webpage.

The 21-year-old finished the curtailed 2019-2020 campaign as the club's top goalscorer with eight goals in all competitions.

The pacy striker joined Liverpool in January 2018 after stops at Crystal Palace, Millwall Lionesses and Watford.

Commenting on her new deal, Babajide stated : "I’m absolutely buzzing to sign a new deal with Liverpool.

"I’ve been here for two-and-a-half years and feel everything is going in a good direction for me, so I felt it was only right to commit to the club.

"I’m in a privileged position and I’m honoured to be here. I can’t wait to get started and carry on the journey with Liverpool."

She was a member of the England squad that finished third at the 2018 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.
