Aston Villa women confirm signing of Noelle Maritz
Aston Villa Women have officially announced the signing of Noelle Maritz. For the third season running Villa has looked to Arsenal to strengthen their squad in the January transfer window.
Last season they signed Jordan Nobbs, while the season before, Anna Patten for her first loan spell. This year it is full-back Noelle Maritz who has signed on a 2-and-a-half-year deal with the option to extend for a further year. Maritz will wear the number 26 shirt for the remainder of the season.
The 28-year-old began her professional career in Switzerland in 2011 when she signed for FC Zurich, before moving to Wolfsburg in 2013. The Swiss international joined Arsenal in 2020 and has gone on to make 56 WSL appearances for the Gunners but in the last season started to see her game time limited with manager Jonas Eidevell preferring the young Laura Weinroither before her injury and now Katie McCabe to play in the right back position instead. Maritz made her Switzerland debut in 2013 and has gone on to make 104 appearances. She is now a mainstay within the team and features within most squad lists. She has won trophies at every club she has signed for in her professional career having won 2 Swiss Womens Super League and 2 Swiss Women’s Cup trophies with FC Zurich, 5 Bundesliga, 6 consecutive DFB- Pokal, a Champions League with Wolfsburg and most recently the FA Womens League Cup with Arsenal. She has had a very successful career so far and hopefully, this will continue going forward ...
