Her talent quickly shone through, propelling her into the spotlight and earning her a spot in the England youth setup.
Bronze's meteoric rise continued as she progressed through the ranks, eventually earning her senior debut for the England national team in 2013. Her dynamic performances and versatility on the field garnered widespread acclaim, leading to her pivotal role in England's triumph at the UEFA Women's European Championship in 2022.
