Gabby George has revealed she broke down in tears ahead of making her senior debut for Everton.
The defender, now 22, was just 17 when she first stepped out for the Blues in a game against Notts County and says thinking about the sacrifices her family had made to get her to that point and how proud her imminent achievement would make them proved overwhelming.

George, who went on to become Everton's first full-time professional women's footballer in 2017, also discusses how the game has changed since her first outing in royal blue, her decision to switch Manchester United's academy for the Toffees, and her motivation to inspire the next generation of women footballers.
