The versatile defender joined City from Bristol City in the summer of 2024 and has made 19 appearances for the club.
She made her debut against Paris FC in the UEFA Women’s Champions League before making a major impact in the competition’s group stage.
Layzell scored and provided an assist in City’s memorable 2-0 victory over Barcelona at the Joie Stadium in October 2024. She opened the scoring from a corner before setting up Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw for the second goal.
However, an injury sustained during the win limited her to 14 appearances that season, while another setback in December 2025 restricted her to just five outings last campaign.
