Liverpool Ladies have completed the signing of New Zealand international striker Rosie White, subject to international clearance.

The 22-year-old played domestically for Western Springs and Three Kings United before moving to the United States to play for the University of California.

White has captained New Zealand at all youth levels, including their U20 side at the 2012 Women's World Cup.

She said: "I am absolutely delighted to be able to join Liverpool Ladies and experience the Women's Super League.

"The prospect of moving to England has always been an attractive proposition to me, so to be able to join the reigning champions and play in the UEFA Women's Champions League is extremely exciting."

Liverpool Ladies manager Matt Beard added: "I am really pleased that we have been able to secure the signing of Rosie as I have been keen to improve my striking options since the beginning of the mid-season break.

"I have watched Rosie for New Zealand a number of times and have always been impressed by her. Rosie will add something different in the final third for us and I am looking forward to working with her."
