On her signing, Cudjoe said: "I am excited to continue my journey with Sky Blue.

“This is a dream for me, and I am forever grateful for the opportunity they gave me. I want to thank each of my teammates for welcoming me with open arms and helping me grow as a player. I am going to give my all to the Club and work harder to help achieve our goal.”

She represented Ghana at both the under-17 and under-20 Women’s World Cup.

Sky Blue FC head coach Freya Coombe added: "I am really pleased to have Jennifer continue with the team following her successful debut at the Challenge Cup.

“Jennifer eats, sleeps, and breathes football. Her enthusiasm is infectious in the team. She brings a different dimension to the midfield and I look forward to helping her continue on the next step of her incredible journey.”
