Everton have bolstered their goalkeeping ranks by signing England Under-21 international Sandy MacIver on an 18-month deal. A former Academy player with the Blues, MacIver rejoins the Club having spent three seasons with Clemson Tigers in the USA. The 21-year-old, who also had a one-season stint with Manchester City before starting a scholarship with Clemson, was handed a first senior England call up by Lionesses manager Phil Neville in August 2019 for friendlies against Belgium and Norway. The previous summer she was part of the England squad that finished third at the Under-20 World Cup in France and scooped the Golden Glove as the tournament's best goalkeeper. Winsford-born MacIver, whose Everton deal runs until June 2021, will compete with former Academy teammate Kirstie Levell and Finland international Tinja-Riikka Korpela for a place in Willie Kirk’s side.
"It's a great feeling to join Everton again,” she told evertonfc.com. “My time here in the Academy was really good, I learnt a lot and now I'm really happy to be back. "Everton really helped me develop as a goalkeeper and I'll always be grateful for that.
