Melbourne Victory Director of Football, John Didulica said he was pleased to have someone of Kellond-Knight’s calibre back at the Club.
“KK is an incredible professional and role model in the squad and we can’t wait to see more of her at Victory,” Didulica said.
“Her contribution last season was more than just on the field. She provided leadership and experience to the squad and our coaching staff and has become an important member of the team.
“We can’t wait to see KK back fit and firing after her recovery from injury and know she will contribute significantly this season.”
Kellond-Knight was looking forward to the upcoming season.
“Although it ended early with injury, I had a great first experience with this group at Melbourne Victory,” Kellond-Knight said.
“Jeff and the squad have developed a culture and mentality that demands the best from everyone in the squad and that is something I want to be a part of.
“The next goal for the team and myself is to bring the Championship home for the team and I’m hungry to achieve more with this group.”
