Addison, Green and Williams bid farewell to Spurs and Schnaderbeck returns to Arsenal

Angela Addison, Josie Green and Rachel Williams have parted company with Tottenham.

And loan aces Jiali Tang, 27, and Viktoria Schnaderbeck, 31, are returning to parent clubs Shanghai Shengli and Arsenal.

Josie Green’s time at Tottenham has come to an end after six seasons playing for the club

Green, 29, who was Spurs‘ longest-serving player, leaves having spent six years at the North London outfit.

The Wales midfielder made 141 Tottenham appearances following her 2016 move from Watford when the club were competing in the game’s third tier.

The WSL ace played an influential role in helping the side earn promotion twice in six seasons including a spot in the Women’s Super League in 2019.

On her departure from Rehanne Skinner’s side, Green said: “I am proud to have helped leave the club in a place that is worlds apart from where I started with them all those years ago.

Club boss Skinner, 42, said: “It’s never easy saying goodbye to players who have made such huge contributions to the success of the club.

“The players leaving us have been instrumental to our journey and Spurs would not be where we are today without their efforts.

“They are exceptional people on and off the pitch and I would like to thank them for everything they have contributed during their time here.
