IRELAND INTERNATIONAL LOUISE Quinn has left Fiorentina ahead of the new Serie A season.
Quinn, 31, moved to Italy last summer and helped La Viola to a fourth-place league finish and to the final of the Supercoppa Italiana, where they lost to Juventus.
“My time at Fiorentina has come to an end,” Quinn wrote in a message on Twitter on Friday.
“Thanks to the club for the opportunity but my experience wouldn’t have been what is was without my teammates and friends that were made, and to live in Firenze, the most beautiful city I’ve set me eyes on!
“To the fans, I’m sorry we never got to meet properly but when you guys arrived at the stadiums to just say hello, it showed me how much you loved this team so Grazie Grazie mille!
“Who knows what’s next but sure it’s all part of the adventure!”
In other Irish women’s football news, Clare Shine has extended her stay at Glasgow City.
The club announced this afternoon that the Cork striker had signed a contract extension for the 2021/22 season.
Shine, in her second spell with Glasgow, has scored a total of 57 goals for the club in domestic competitions and in Champions League action, helping them to a remarkable 14th Scottish League title on the bounce in an injury-hampered 2021 season.
“I am delighted to sign a new contract with Glasgow City,” Shine said. “I love being a part of this amazing club and can’t wait to get going again. I am really looking forward to the new season.”
