The 24-year-old put pen to paper on a professional contract at Maiden Castle in 2024.

Blake was born in London but grew up in New Zealand, the birthplace of her parents, before moving to the USA in 2019.

She joined the University of Michigan Wolverines in NCAA Division 1, the highest level of US college football, before taking her first steps into professional football when joining Australian top flight side Perth Glory in January 2023.

After netting on her debut against Western United, Blake went on to score three times in just six appearances before being snapped-up by fellow A -League side Adelaide United for the 2023/24 campaign.

The versatile forward – who can play in a variety of attacking positions – is also a senior international for New Zealand having made her debut for the Football Ferns at just 17-years-old.
