TOONE’S INFLUENTIAL JANUARY
This awards success caps a significant month for our iconic no.7, after she returned from the first major injury of her career to score five goals in four matches.
As well as being a legend on the pitch, Tooney has also shown her strength of character and inspirational personality while dealing with a family bereavement.
Her dad, Nick, sadly passed away in September and, this week, Ella opened up about her grief throughout a deeply moving article for The Players’ Tribune.
“This is my first try at really talking about it,” explains the England international. “But I wanted to write this, for anyone grieving and feeling alone.”
We encourage all of our fans to read Tooney’s words – you can find it here.
