Goalkeeper Anna Pedersen joined the Addicks from Rugby Borough in July 2025, signing a one-year contract with the option of an additional year.  

The 23-year-old returns to south east London having previously spent two seasons with London City Lionesses.  

An ACL injury brought her time at London City Lionesses to an end, and meant she missed the entirety of the 2023/24 campaign.  

Having completed her rehabilitation, Pedersen joined Women’s National League North side Rugby Borough in July 2024.  

She made 19 appearances in her comeback season across all competitions, making herself first choice between the sticks and impressing to earn a move to the Addicks.   

The goalkeeper, who spent six years in Leeds United’s academy before moving to Everton’s U21s, also has an England U18 cap to her name, having played against the USA in 2019.
