Fresh from a PFA Young Player of the Year-winning season on loan at Tottenham in the previous term, the young midfielder has had a sizeable influence on United Women’s perfect start to the league campaign.
Since signing from Everton in the summer of 2022, Grace has enjoyed formative temporary spells at Bristol City and Spurs over recent years, before making her much-anticipated Reds debut in the 3-0 win over West Ham on the opening day.
Clinton marked the occasion with a Player of the Match performance, which included opening her goalscoring account for the club, by heading home our third of the afternoon in front of the Stretford End.
Eight days later, the 21-year-old – who also scored on her senior England bow earlier this year – was on target again in the trip to former club Everton, netting the only goal of the game as United made it two wins from two in the new WSL season.
