Janine Beckie has joined National Women’s Soccer League side Portland Thorns on a three-year-deal.
The 27-year-old returns to her homeland of the United States after almost four years in Manchester, bringing an end to a successful spell at the Academy Stadium.
She initially linked up with City in the summer of 2018 when joining from Sky Blue FC in the NWSL, having spent the entirety of her career to that point in America.
Figuring in 90 games in all competitions and scoring 23 goals over the course of four seasons, the Canadian international also lifted four trophies during her stay, including two Women’s FA Cups (2019 and 2020) and two Continental Tyres League Cups (2019 and 2022).
As we bid a fond farewell to a beloved member of the team, look back on Janine’s best City moments in the video above...
