Long Road To The Top For Turner

Long Road To The Top For Turner
 It’s been a long journey together for Danielle Turner and Everton Ladies.

The wing-back has had more than her fair share of battles en route to the prestige of becoming Club captain in Women’s Super League 1 and one of the Blue Girls’ longest-serving players.

Warrington-born Turner joined the Club in 2006 as part of the Everton Ladies’ Centre of Excellence and graduated into the first team for the start of the 2013/2014 season.

But the start she had to life in the senior side was not the one she would have dreamt of.

“Breaking through was obviously great, but I had a bit of a mixed year because I broke my metatarsal in preseason,” recalled the 26-year-old. “I ended up being out for nine months and missed most of the season, so it was bittersweet.

NAME: Danielle Turner

POSITIONS: Defence/Midfield

DATE OF BIRTH: 1O September 1991

PLACE OF BIRTH: Warrington

HONOURS: WSL 2 Spring Series (2O15), Player of the Season (2O15), England U25 & U19s

“I had been working hard in the reserves, as it was called then, but the injury set me back a bit and I didn’t get back until the September. Like I say, it was great when I broke through - when I eventually did break through!”
