The Olympic gold medal-winning centre-back’s exit comes two days after her player-of-the-match performance in Canada’s 1-1 draw with Mexico.

The fixture was the team’s final friendly home game before the July start of the Paris Olympics.

Zadorsky’s departure, after three years and 73 appearances at Spurs, follows her spending the second half of last season on loan at West Ham who finished one place above the drop zone.

Other players leaving include Nottinghamshire-born forward Ellie Brazil.
