Jenna Nighswonger has joined Aston Villa on loan for the remainder of the 2025/26 season.

The 25-year-old joined us from National Women’s Super League side Gotham FC in the USA in January 2025.

Jenna made her debut for us on 9 February 2025, in our 2-0 win against London City Lionesses in the Adobe Women’s FA Cup.

We wish Jenna all the best with Aston Villa for the rest of the season.
