Ipswich Town Signs Georgia Timms From Hearts

Summer Transfer Arrival

Ipswich Town have finalised the signing of 28‑year‑old striker Georgia Timms on a permanent deal. The Tractors Girls made the announcement this afternoon via a post on their official club website. Timms becomes the club’s eighth acquisition of the window and the fifth player to move from the Scottish Women’s Premier League (SWPL) to Ipswich this summer.

Path to Ipswich

Timms spent four seasons north of the border with Hearts, netting 45 goals in all competitions. She joined Hearts for free in the summer of 2022 after departing Lewes, having previously impressed with Oxford United in the FA Women’s National League. At Hearts she helped the side claim their first SWPL title, ending a historic drought for the Scottish club.

Career Highlights

• 45 goals for Hearts over four campaigns
• SWPL champion with Hearts (first title in club history)
• Started career at Oxford United before moving to Lewes
• Joined Ipswich as the eighth new signing of the summer window

First Reaction

After completing the move, Timms said she was “so happy to be here. The club, the direction it’s going in and speaking with the manager [David Wright] and speaking to Sean [Burt], it was the move that I wanted.” She praised the club’s vision and the support of the coaching staff. Her enthusiasm signals a strong start to the new campaign.

What This Means for Ipswich

With Timms’ arrival, Ipswich adds a proven scorer who has performed at the highest level in Scotland. Her experience in both the English lower tiers and the SWPL brings versatility to the squad. The club’s recruitment strategy of tapping SWPL talent appears to be paying off, boosting their ambitions for the upcoming season.
