Former Liverpool defender Gilly Flaherty has been inducted into the Barclays Women’s Super League Hall of Fame.
Flaherty, who retired from the professional game in January 2023 after a six-month spell with the Reds, was this morning revealed as one of four new inductees to the league’s Hall of Fame.
Her hugely successful senior career began at Arsenal in 2006 and also included time with Chelsea and West Ham United, where she served as captain.
Flaherty won four WSL titles, seven Women’s FA Cups and a UEFA Cup.
She made 177 appearances in England’s top flight – a record figure upon her retirement – and holds the achievement of scoring the first ever goal in the WSL in 2011.
The Londoner also represented England at international level.
Flaherty made 10 appearances for Liverpool before calling time on her playing career.
