Location: North Ayrshire
Erin Cuthbert is a Scottish footballer who plays for Chelsea in the FA Women’s Super League.
A former Rangers academy player, the then 18-year-old became the top scorer at her former club, less than a few months after joining them, collecting 19 goals as well as their Player of the Year Award and a Scottish Women’s Premier League winners’ medal.
She made her senior international debut in Scotland’s 1-0 win over Belarus in Women’s Euro 2017 qualification and Cuthbert netted their first goal in the finals in a game against Portugal. In the 2018/19 season, she was named Chelsea’s Player of the Year and shortlisted for the Women’s PFA Young Player of the Year award.
The summer of 2019 was also one to remember as Erin went to her first World Cup finals with Scotland and scored in their second group stage match against Argentina.
