Kylie Davies (born 25 September 1987) is an English-born Welsh female international footballer. She plays as a centre back for FA WSL club Millwall Lionesses and has represented the Wales women's national football team at senior level.
Club career
Davies began playing football at aged six,[4] and joined the women's section of Wimbledon FC as a 10-year-old in 1998.[5] In summer 2004, Davies was approached by Fulham. She decided to stay with AFC Wimbledon but changed her mind when approached again in September 2004.[5] After two years at Fulham, Davies moved to Chelsea in 2006.[4][6]
During the 2007 and 2008 off-seasons, Davies played in the American W-League for Richmond Kickers Destiny.[6] With Chelsea dormant ahead of the 2011 FA WSL season, Davies featured for Colchester United Ladies.[7]
When Casey Stoney left Chelsea for Lincoln Ladies, Davies inherited the Chelsea captaincy.[8] She transferred from Chelsea to Millwall Lionesses in January 2014, following a brief loan spell.
International career
Davies represented England at the Under-15, 17, 19, 21 and 23 levels.[4] However, she was called into the Wales squad in March 2010 as her grandfather had been born in Pontardawe.[9] Davies made her senior debut for Wales as a 90th-minute substitute, against Belgium that month.[3]
Davies also represented Great Britain at the 2007 Summer Universiade in Bangkok, while a student at Loughborough University.[10]
