Charlton Athletic

[edit | edit source]

Graham played for Charlton Athletic from age 9 to 23 and scored over 200 goals. During the 2017–18 season of the FA Women’s Premier League Southern Division, her 47 goals ranked first in the league as she led the team to earn promotion to the 2018–19 FA Women's Championship (FAWC).[1] During the 2018–19 FAWC, she scored 16 goals in 19 games. She was subsequently named FAWC Players’ Player of the Year.[2]

Tottenham Hotspur

[edit | edit source]

Graham signed with Tottenham Hotspur in August 2019 despite a dispute over the terms of her previous contract at Charlton.[3][4] She scored a brace against Bristol City on 27 October leading Tottenham to a 2–0 win.[5] She was nominated for the October's PFA Fan's Player of the Month.[6] Graham signed a new contract with Tottenham until 2021 on 8 January 2020.[7]

In the opening game of the 2021-22 WSL season, Graham became the first Tottenham Hotspur women's player to score at the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.[8] However, only a couple of months later during a match against West Ham, Graham suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, leaving her unable to play for the rest of the season.[9]

In the 2023-24 WSL, Graham made 18 league appearances for Spurs, who also reached the FA Cup final, and signed a new contract keeping her at the club until summer 2025.[10][11] She suffered another setback ahead of the 2024-25 season as she sustained another ACL injury during pre-season training.[10] Graham returned to the grass in March 2025 and returned to full training in the summer.[12][13] Tottenham Hotspur extended Graham's contract by a further year in May 2025.[14]

Personal life
