Club career

[edit | edit source]As a teenager, Grohs played for local club 1. FC Gievenbeck.[5][6]
In 2016, Grohs joined the youth division at VfL Bochum, where she played 17 games in the B-Juniorinnen-Bundesliga.[7] At the end of the 2016–17 season, the team got relegated to the B-Juniorinnen-Regionalliga West. Grohs played for Bochum for the next 2 seasons.[8]
Professional
[edit | edit source]Bayern Munich II
[edit | edit source]
For the 2019–20 season, Grohs moved to Frauen-Bundesliga side Bayern Munich.[9] At first, Grohs played for Bayern second team in the 2. Frauen-Bundesliga.[10] She made her debut on 11 August 2019, in a win 4:1 vs Eintracht Frankfurt second team.
Bayern Munich
[edit | edit source]On 30 January 2021, Grohs made her debut for the first team, in Bayern victory 13:0 over Walddörfer SV[11] in the DFB-Pokal Round-of-16.
On 17 April 2021, she made her Frauen-Bundesliga debut, in a defeat 3:2 to Hoffenheim.[12]
At the beginning of the 2022–23 season, Grohs became the First-Choice Goalkeeper at FC Bayern, starting all the games. On 27 October 2022, in a match vs Benfica Lisbon in the Group-stage of the Champions League, at a status of 2–2 in the 89th minute, Grohs saved a Benfica penalty, and minutes later Georgia Stanway scored the winner in a 3–2 win for FC Bayern.[13][14]
International career
[edit | edit source]Since 2017, Grohs was a youth international for Germany on several selection levels. In addition, between 2015 and 2018, she played under the Westphalian Football and Athletics Association in the National Pokal.
On 16 February 2017, Grohs made her debut for Germany U16, in a win 2:1 over Portugal U16. 4 days later, she played in a defeat 2:0 to Netherlands U16.
On 29 November 2017, she made her debut for Germany U17, in a win 4:1 vs Finland U17.

In September 2022, Grohs was called up to train with the German National Team for the first time.[16]
Personal life
[edit | edit source]Grohs is studying for a bachelor's degree at the Technical University of Munich; her initial choice was Aerospace Engineering, but in the end enrolled in Mechanical Engineering.[17] In an interview Grohs mentioned that she would have tried to get into the ESA space programme and train as an astronaut if she had not become a professional footballer.[18] In November 2024 she published that she had been diagnosed with a malignant tumor and that she would therefore be missing from the team indefinitely. As a result, her contract was extended by another year until 2026.[19] In December, she and FC Bayern announced that all medical measures and interventions were successful and that, ideally, she could start training again in January.[20][21] She returned to team training in January 2025.[22]
