Shimizu, who will wear the number two shirt, has 78 Japan caps to her name and will join City in Australia for the inaugural Perth International Football Cup after representing her national side at the Olympics in Paris.
Shimizu said: “First of all, it’ll be a challenge, but one I’m ready for. I think I’m technically good and calm with the ball in possession, so I think I’ll play well in City’s style.
