Melbourne City FC is pleased to announce the signing of defender Aimee Medwin ahead of the 2026/27 campaign.
The 27-year-old returns to the Club where she made her professional debut in Round 1 of the 2018/19 season, before moving to the United States to play college football with the University of Mississippi and Long Beach State University.
Medwin returned to the Ninja A-League in 2022 and has since made 64 league appearances across spells with Western United and Brisbane Roar.
She enjoyed an impressive 2025/26 campaign in Brisbane, playing a key role in the Roar’s run to the Semi Finals while contributing three goals and three assists from 23 appearances.
Predominantly deployed at full-back, Medwin’s pace, versatility and ability to contribute at both ends of the pitch will provide City with another dynamic option across the backline.
She joins the reigning Premiers and Champions as City prepares to defend its domestic titles and compete in a third consecutive AFC Women’s Champions League campaign.
Melbourne City FC Director of Football Michael Petrillo said Medwin’s versatility and attacking qualities would make her a valuable addition to the squad.
“Aimee is a dynamic and versatile defender who we’re pleased to welcome back to Melbourne City,” Petrillo said.
“She has developed significantly since we first saw her as a young player, and her performances last season showed the impact she can have at both ends of the pitch.
“Her pace and ability to get forward give us another attacking threat from defence, while her flexibility will provide us with different options throughout the season.”
Medwin said she was excited by the opportunity to contribute to City’s continued success.
“It’s really special to be coming back to Melbourne City, where I was fortunate enough to make my professional debut,” Medwin said.
“I’ve experienced a lot and developed both as a player and a person since then, so I’m excited to return and contribute to such a successful team.
“City has set incredibly high standards over the past few seasons, and I can’t wait to get started, meet the group and do everything I can to help us compete for more trophies.”
