Sheffield Utd Women retain Rhema Lord-Mears on two-year deal
Sheffield United Women’s midfielder Rhema Lord-Mears has signed a new two-year deal through to the end of the 2022/23 season.
Lord-Mears had been a constant presence in the United team this past season, playing a part in 19 of the side’s 20 league games.
The 25-year-old scored a hat-trick in the Vitality FA Women’s Cup tie against Middlesbrough and has played a key role linking midfield and attack throughout the campaign.
Formerly of Sheffield FC, Anderlecht and Blackburn Rovers, Lord-Mears joined United from the latter halfway through the 2019/20 campaign, only to see her first season with the club curtailed when the FA Women’s Championship was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Sheffield United Women’s midfielder Maddy Cusack has signed a new deal at the club and will remain a Blade for the 2021/22 season.
Cusack is embarking on her fourth season at the club and recently celebrated making her 50th appearance as a Blade.
A constant presence during her two-and-a-half years at the club, she ended the latest campaign as the team’s joint most creative player with six assists alongside January addition Bex Rayner.
A tireless work ethic in her box-to-box midfield role, Cusack has become a pivotal member of Neil Redfearn’s starting eleven and the Blades head coach is delighted another member of his squad has committed their future to the club.
