Northern Ireland international Megan Bell has joined Nottingham Forest from WSPL1 side Rangers.

Midfielder Bell won 34 international caps and scored three goals.

The 23-year-old joined Rangers in 2020 and previously played for Hearts, Durham and Linfield.

Bell said "it means a lot" to sign for Forest, who are second in the FA Premier Division North - the third tier in England.

"It's a massive club with massive ambition so I'm delighted to be here," Bell told the club's website.

"I think I'm a very attack-minded player and I'd like to think I can make things happen."

The move to Forest will see Bell link up with Northern Ireland team-mates Caragh Hamilton, Casey Howe and Nat Johnson.

Nottingham Forest head coach Carly Davies said that Bell had "tremendous potential".

"I look forward to supporting her development and seeing how far we can develop her.

"Megan is an exciting young prospect with an exceptionally bright future."
