Former Waterhouse midfielder Omalyn Davis could become the first Jamaican woman to play football professionally in Russia.
This as she is heading off for a 3 week trial stint with Russian Women's Premier Division team FC Energy Voronezh.
Davis who last played for the Magic Jack Washington Freedom in the American based Women's Professional Soccer League became available after the WPS Board of Governors revoked the Magic Jack’s franchise rights and also voted to suspend the entire 2012 season with hopes of resuming in 2013.
Voronezh meanwhile are currently 2nd in the league table on 44 points from 18 games with 14 wins 2 losses and 2 draws, 6 points behind first place FC Rossiyanka.
Davis who leaves for Russia next Saturday, if successful, could make her debut against Iznaylovo Moscow on March 1, and could also be in action two days later when Voronezh host Rossiyanka in a top of the table clash.
