We can confirm that Olivia Carpenter has completed a move to Watford FC.
Liv joined The Rooks at the start of the 2024/25 season from the Brighton & Hove Albion academy and quickly made her mark in red and black with a number of spectacular goals. Establishing herself as a consistent goal threat, she finished her first season as the club’s joint top scorer and won Goal of the Season for a sensational strike against Oxford United. That same effort was also shortlisted for Veo Technologies’ ‘People’s Puskas’ award in 2024/25.
Across her two seasons at the club, Liv made 53 appearances and scored 19 goals, finding the net in every competition for The Rooks. She was also an important part of the squad that lifted the Sussex Women’s Challenge Cup in 2025.
Liv now moves to a side pushing for promotion, and we wish her every success in this exciting next step. Thank you for everything you have given to the club, Liv – The Dripping Pan will always be a home for you.
