Four players have now left the club in the last week, with winger Jamie-Lee Napier joining Chelsea Women and full-back Cailin Michie signing for Swedish side Piteå IF.

Head coach Grant Scott departed earlier this week citing personal reasons while midfielder Kirsten Reilly left the club for Bristol City Women in September.

A statement from the club read: "Hibernian can confirm that Alicia Yates has completed a transfer to Spartans Women. We wish her well for the future."
