Grace Coombes
Current Club
AFC Wimbledon
Right Midfield
Grace is an ambitious right winger with a natural instinct for goal. Clinical in front of the net, she times her runs well and finishes with composure, making her a constant scoring threat. Her ability to drive at opponents with pace and deliver dangerous crosses further adds to her attacking impact, often creating as many goals as she scores. Calm on the ball and sharp in her decision-making, she consistently finds ways to turn attacking moves into end product.
Versatility is one of Grace’s greatest strengths. She is comfortable dropping deeper to play as a full-back, applying herself defensively with well-timed challenges and strong tackling. Physically, she competes well in duels, using her strength to hold off opponents and regain possession. Her speed and physical presence also allow her to play further forward when required, giving her team a direct and powerful option in attack. This blend of attacking quality, defensive contribution, and adaptability makes Grace a highly reliable player, capable of excelling across multiple roles and consistently offering an exceptional work rate.
