“Liverpool Complete January Capture of Dynamic Winger Who Has 24 Career Goals”

 

Liverpool Women have confirmed the signing of Aurélie Csillag from SC Freiburg during the January transfer window.

The Swiss forward joins Anna Josendal (Hammarby) and Martha Thomas (on loan from Tottenham) as new additions aimed at strengthening Gareth Taylor’s squad. The Reds are currently at the bottom of the Women’s Super League table, with just four points from 12 games and yet to register a win this season.

The club announced the signing on Monday, noting that it is subject to international clearance.

Liverpool Women have endured a difficult 2025/26 campaign, scoring only eight goals—the second-lowest in the league behind Leicester City. Csillag is expected to inject pace and attacking threat into a forward line that has struggled for productivity.

Stats from FBref highlight her potential to make an immediate impact. Before her time in Germany, the left winger scored 16 goals in 49 appearances over three seasons with FC Basel, and including her spell at Grasshopper, she has a total of 24 career club goals, according to Fotmob.

Csillag has expressed her versatility, stating she can play both as a winger and as a central striker—an option that could prove valuable to Taylor’s side. “I come as a striker, as a winger, so I can score goals, I can go one-on-one, and I can race past my opponents. These are my strengths,” she told liverpoolfc.com.
