5 Defender
American defender Taylor Otto joined City ahead of the 2023/24 season. She joined the Club after a stint with Gotham FC as a National Team Replacement Player during the FIFA Women’s World Cup.
A versatile defender, Otto spent the 2022/23 season playing an integral role for Celtic in the Scottish Women’s Premier League. During her time in Scotland, the Scottish Women’s Cup winner made 27 league appearances and netted two goals.
Pick 11 in the draft, the American began her professional footballing career with Racing Louisville. Otto made 11 league appearances in the NWSL between 2021 and 2022, before joining Scottish heavyweights, Celtic.
Otto impressed in her first season at City, starting every game of the 2023/24 campaign.
The American defender formed a formidable partnership in the heart of defence with City Captain, Rebekah Stott, helping the side record five clean sheets across the final seven matches of the season, conceding just twice enroute to securing the A-League Women’s Premiers Plate.
