Ipswich Town Women midfielder Sophie Peskett has left to join Women's Super League side Brighton & Hove Albion for a club record fee.

Peskett became the Tractor Girls' first professional when she signed a two-year deal in 2021.

Since her debut in 2019, the 23-year-old made 127 appearances for Ipswich, helping them two promotions up to WSL2.

Peskett is the second big departure from the club since the end of last season, with Jamaica international Natasha Thomas, who spent more than a decade at Ipswich before leaving in May, joined Wrexham on Friday.
