FRAN KIRBY is Women’s Footballer of the Year

Congratulations to Fran Kirby, who has won the FWA Women's Footballer of the Year award again, having been the inaugural winner of our award in 2018.

With 25 goals and 18 assists in all competitions so far, the 27-year-old has been brilliant for the newly crowned FAWSL champions and the partnerships she has formed, particularly with Australian striker Sam Kerr, have proven too hot-to-handle for defences both at home and across the continent.
