Real Bedford Ladies Sign Emily Wilson
Real Bedford Ladies can confirm that midfielder Emily Wilson has signed for the club ahead of the 2024/25 campaign.
Wilson joins from MK Dons, having come through the pathway system in Milton Keynes. Wilson also played at AFC Dunstable before solidifying her place within the MK squad over the past 18 months.
With the ability to play across the midfield, Wilson rejoins Charlie Bill having previously played for his side in Milton Keynes.
On signing for Bedford, Wilson said:
“It’s really exciting to join Bedford at this time, considering the trajectory they are on. I obviously know Charlie well from my time at MK Dons so it seemed the right fit joining ahead of this campaign.”
Real Bedford Ladies manager, Charlie Bill said:
“"Em is a player we know well who progressed through the pathway at MK. She was one of the most hard-working players, who is a fantastic character both on & off the pitch. She has progressed an incredible amount over the past 2 years & have no doubt she is going to kick on once more this season.”
Wilson will link up with the rest of the Real Bedford squad in a few weeks time ahead of the 2024/25 campaign. To make sure you don’t miss a second of the action you can purchase your season ticket card here.
