Biography
An unpredictable winger who is a nightmare for opposition defenders.
Toone spent seven years with the Reds’ youth teams before returning, via spells at Blackburn Rovers and Manchester City, in 2018. Able to play anywhere in the United frontline, Toone is an explosive forward with a real eye for goal, and she proved this by netting 15 times across 19 starts in all competitions as we stormed to the FA Women’s Championship title. After contributing four goals in a 7-0 league win against Leicester City in February 2019, Toone claimed the FA Women's Championship Player of the Month award and was also capped by England Under-21s for the first time. She continued her prolific form in the following campaign with another scoring spree against Leicester, this time hitting five during an 11-1 win in the Continental League Cup, and bagged her first Women's Super League strike away to Everton in February 2020. In 2020/21, Toone finished as United's top scorer, with 10 goals across all competitions. She was rewarded with a first England cap in February 2021, scoring a penalty in a 6-0 friendly triumph over Northern Ireland. There was no sign of slowing down as the Reds' no.7 began 2021/22 in electric form for both club and country, hitting a hat-trick for the Lionesses against Latvia in October 2021 and being named WSL Player of the Month the following December, either side of signing a new contract running until June 2025. As of the start of 2022, Toone had made more United appearances than any other player and was also the club's all-time top scorer.
