Magill earns NI player of the year award
- Published
Birmingham City forward Simone Magill has been voted Northern Ireland Women's player of the year by the side's supporters.
In an eventful 2024, the 30-year-old was named captain of her country and found the net twice against Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as making the move to St Andrew's from Aston Villa.
The former Everton player was especially pleased to receive an award voted for by supporters.
"Our fans are fantastic and always get behind us, and it's always really nice to be recognised by the fans," she said.
"Playing for Northern Ireland was always my dream, and it still is. I want to go on and push on and keep achieving great things wearing the green shirt."
Magill and her international team-mates will be back in action next month when their Uefa Nations League campaign starts with a trip to Poland on 21 February.
