Mary Earps voted BBC's Women's Footballer of the Year - making her the first goalkeeper in HISTORY to win the award - just months after being named England's Player of the Year

Mary Earps has been voted BBC's Women's Footballer of the Year, making history as the first goalkeeper honoured and capping a star-studded 2023 for the Lionesses goalkeeper.

The 30-year-old has been honoured with a raft of awards for her contributions for both her country and for Manchester United, who she helped finish second in last year's Women's Super League table.

Earps was previously named Women's Goalkeeper at FIFA's The Best awards in 2022, before being named England Women's Player of the Year in September following Sarina Wiegman's side's promising but ultimately unsuccessful World Cup campaign.
