Hannah Cain played for England age-grade teams before switching allegiance to Wales
Wales striker Hannah Cain has signed a two-year contract extension to stay at Women's Super League side Leicester City.
The 24-year-old former Everton and Sheffield United player says Leicester "feels like home".
Cain added: "It was an easy decision. I have a lot of thoughts and feelings towards the club - I have such an attachment here.
"We've been on a journey and I'm excited for what's to come next."
Cain, part of a Leicester side who finished 10th in the 2022-23 Women's Super League, added: "We've gone through some tough times, but we've got such a strong core here that have experienced the highs and lows.
"It's been difficult to get to this point, but we know how to fight and for me that's a strong value that I can relate with."
Cain switched allegiance from England to Wales in September 2021.
She suffered a knee injury playing for Wales in a friendly match two months later and was ruled out for the remainder of that season.
She felt "very low" during a difficult recovery period, but returned to full fitness for club and country.
