In January 2024 after the expiration of her contract she joined Tottenham Hotspur on a contract until 2026.[9] On 14 January she made her debut for the club in the 3-2 FA Cup victory over Sheffield United, playing the entire match.[10]

International career

[edit]

In September 2021, Grant made her debut for the Australian senior team in a friendly against the Republic of Ireland.[11]

Grant was a member of the Matildas Tokyo 2020 Olympics squad. The Matildas qualified for the quarter-finals and beat Great Britain before being eliminated in the semi-final with Sweden. In the playoff for the bronze medal they were beaten by the USA.[12]

At the 2022 AFF Women's Championship, the defender captained the Australia women's national under-23 soccer team (U23 Matildas) for their first-ever matches in July in the Philippines, where they competed against senior national women's squads.[13] In April 2023, Grant scored her first international goal for the Matidas in a 2–0 win over England in a friendly.[14]

Personal life

Grant announced via Instagram in December 2024 she was engaged to Lachlan Cameron.[15][16]

Two of Grant's best friends are fellow Matildas Kyra Cooney-Cross[17] and Katrina Gorry (of whom she describes as a "second mum", with her daughter Harper as like a sister). She describes fellow Matildas defenders Ellie Carpenter and Steph Catley as her biggest role models.[18]
