Blindkilde Brown wants 'no regrets'

Laura Blindkilde Brown made over 50 senior appearances for former club Aston Villa before turning 21

Manchester City midfielder Laura Blindkilde Brown says she wants to "showcase" what she can do while with the England senior squad.

The 21-year-old has impressed since joining City from Aston Villa for £200,000 on transfer deadline day in January.

The midfielder scored in City’s Women’s Champions League victory over Hammarby and received a first England call-up by Sarina Wiegman this month.

"It’s about coming in, working really hard and also enjoying it. At the end of the day, I want to leave camp having no regrets and showcasing what I can do," said Blindkilde Brown.

She admits the decision to leave Villa, where she was playing regularly, was a "tough" one but she always believed she would get opportunities at City and it has now paid off.

"It was definitely a tough decision but ultimately I knew it would help me develop as a player," added Blindkilde Brown.

"If I just kept developing with the team and showing what I could do, eventually I could get an opportunity. Then it was about taking that opportunity when I was given it.

"Having the Women’s Champions League this year has helped because the squad depth is being rotated. I’ve been getting more opportunities which has definitely helped."
