Since joining United in 2018, she has become their top scorer with most appearances for the club, has been described as a household name, as well as a key player by manager Marc Skinner. In August 2023, Toone scored her first World Cup goal against Australia in the semi-final, becoming the first England footballer to score in a quarter-final, semi-final and final of a major tournament.

Early life

Born in Tyldesley, near Wigan, in the county of Greater Manchester, Toone began playing for Astley and Tyldesley Girls, where a plaque honouring her was installed at the club in 2022. She then joined Manchester United's youth academy at 8 years old.

Toone attended Fred Longworth High School. After leaving secondary school, whilst playing for Manchester United, she enrolled onto a BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma Sport Science course at Wigan and Leigh College.

Toone has said her mother was a gymnast growing up, and on her father's side, family members were "all swimmers and water polo players". In school, she played a variety of sports, including table tennis, netball, cross country, and tennis, as well as winning several trophies in gymnastics.

Club career

Blackburn Rovers

In 2013, at 14 years old, she joined Blackburn Rovers, prior to joining the first team two years later to score 13 goals in 20 appearances in the Premier League North. In the 2015–16 and 2015–16 seasons, she scored a total of 26 goals in 33 appearance for the club in all competitions.

Manchester City

Toone joined Manchester City in the summer of 2016 having previously been a youth at Manchester United for six years but moved on due to a lack of senior women's team. She continued to play with Blackburn in the National League on dual registration terms. In July 2016, she made her senior Manchester City debut as a substitute in an 8–0 win over Aston Villa in the Continental Cup.

She made her competitive debut for Manchester United, as a half-time substitute for Mollie Green, in a 1–0 League Cup victory against Liverpool on 19 August. On 9 September, she scored her first senior goal, on her league debut, in United's opening game of the 2018–19 season, a 12–0 win away to Aston Villa.

2019–20

In the 2019–20 season, Toone scored five goals in a League Cup group stage game as United beat Leicester City 11–1 on 21 November 2019, equalling the club record set by Sigsworth the previous season, as well as setting the record for most hat-tricks for the club with her second hat-trick.

2020–21

Ahead of the 2020–21 season, Toone signed a new two-year contract with an option for a third. Toone finished the season as United's top goal scorer, with ten goals in all competitions, as well as five assists.

She became WSL Player of the Month in December, playing every minute of Manchester United's WSL games that month. A fan favourite, Toone was awarded club Player of the Year for the season with 35% of the vote, as the first player to reach 100 appearances for the club, as well as nominated PFA Young Player of the Year, the award was later won by Lauren Hemp.

2022–23

On 10 November 2022, Toone signed a further contract extension until June 2026. In the 2022–23 season, Toone provided 8 assists and scored 3 goals, helping United to finish second place in the WSL, and qualifying for the Champions League second round for the first time in the club's history. In February 2023, Toone had a red card and three-match ban overturned, after being sent off for pushing Tottenham's Eveliina Summanen. Summanen was later charged with simulation and deceiving officials over the incident by the FA, and given a two-match ban.

2023–24

I always want to contribute goals and assists, it's what I pride myself on as a No.10. It was quite difficult having a few games without them but I just had to make sure I was not putting too much pressure on myself to force things. I always set myself targets but this term I've learned I can't think about them too much.

In June 2022, Toone was included in the England squad for UEFA Women's Euro 2022. She appeared in every match as a substitute, and scored twice.

Her second goal was in the final to give England the lead against Germany in the 62nd minute. England won 2–1 in extra-time, winning the tournament. Since England's Euro victory, Toone has been described as an understated "big game player" and a "household name" by The Independent, as well as a "super sub" by Goal.com, after her goals and assist from the bench.

On 6 April 2023, at a sold-out Wembley stadium, Toone scored the opening goal in the 2023 Women's Finalissima against Brazil, a game England won on penalties.
