Durham defender Salicki signs new deal | OneFootball

Durham defender Becky Salicki has signed a new contract with the club.

The Wildcats announced the news via a post on their official club website this morning.

Salicki is one of Durham’s longest-serving players with the defender having joined the club way back in 2016. The centre-back has gone on to make 205 appearances for The Wildcats in all competitions in which she has scored 16 goals. Salicki has been an important member of Durham sides that have pushed for promotion in her time at the club.

Salicki is a key member of the Durham back-line and the club have therefore moved to retain her services for the upcoming season.

After signing on again at Maiden Castle, Salicki said “It feels really good, this is my home and I love it here.

“It’s always been the same here – the attitude we have here of never say never and never giving up is a big part of me.

“The fans are huge. What an unbelievable amount of fans we get home and away and it’s ever-growing.

“At the last game of the season, I spoke to quite a few people who were new and had never been before and they were so excited for the new season to come back, so that’s a really good part as well.”

Salicki is the third player to sign a new contract with Durham this summer.
