Crystal Palace are pleased to announce the signing of Denmark international Mille Gejl.

The 24-year-old becomes the side’s sixth addition in this window, joining Jorja Fox, Ashleigh Weerden, Katrine Veje, Shae Yañez and Indiah-Paige Riley

She began her career in her native Denmark, playing for Varde IF, KoldingQ, Brøndby IF and BK Häcken before moving to the United States to feature for North Carolina Courage. She then spent the latter half of last season on loan at Montpellier, where she made seven appearances.

The forward won multiple accolades in Denmark, including the ​​Danish Women’s League title in 2019 with Brøndby in 2019, as well as the 2023 UKG NWSL Challenge Cup in Carolina.

Gejl said: “I’m so excited, I’ve heard so many good things about the club. It’s a massive club, so professional and there’s good people around here.

“I’ve heard such good things about the facilities, the people around the club and to play in the best league in England is another thing that made me want to come here.”

Head of Women’s Football Grace Williams also added: “Millie is another welcome addition to our side in this summer transfer window. Her experience and winning mentality will help us push on in our first-ever WSL campaign.”
