Early life

Born in Portsmouth, Brett was introduced to football at an early age by her father, who took her to Portsmouth matches as a season ticket holder. She began playing football at a young age and spent time in both the Portsmouth and Southampton youth set-ups before moving to the Chelsea centre of excellence at the age of nine.

Playing career

Club

Chelsea

As a member of Chelsea Centre of Excellence Under 17's, Brett was part of the team that won the League and FA Cup in May 2012. [3] Through the course of her time with the Chelsea first team, Brett would see intermittent playing time making 16 appearances in 3 season and scoring twice.

Bristol City

Looking for more playing time, Brett joined Bristol City on a long-term loan from Chelsea ahead of the 2016 season. [4] Brett would register 20 appearances and scoring 3 goals contributing to Bristol's promotion to FA WSL 1. The loan-deal was subsequently extended through the 2017 Spring Series. [2] [5]

Everton

In July 2017, Brett transferred to Everton on a two-year deal. [6] [7]

Brighton & Hove Albion

On 26 July 2018, aged 22, Brett signed for Albion for an undisclosed fee.

Early into the 2018-19 season, Brett suffered a severe foot injury which required specialist operative treatment. The procedure was not successful.

Brett underwent subsequent remedial operations which precluded her participation in the 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons.

On 29 May 2021, at the age of 25, Brett announced her retirement from professional football due to injury.

International

She was involved with the English selections as captain in the 2015 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship organized in Israel. [8] Brett was named in UEFA's team of the tournament. [9] [10]

The 2017–18 season was Everton's 64th consecutive season in the top flight of English football and their 140th year in existence. They participated in the Premier League, FA Cup, EFL Cup, and UEFA Europa League. Everton had a disappointing start to the campaign, leading to the dismissal of manager Ronald Koeman in October after a 5–2 home loss to Arsenal, Koeman sacked just 2 months into his second campaign in charge after guiding Everton into the UEFA Europa League in an impressive first season at the club. It was over a month after his departure that Sam Allardyce took over from interim manager David Unsworth, as prime target, Watford manager Marco Silva, was unable to be released from a contract with The Hornets to take over at Goodison Park. The fiasco led to a legal suit after Silva was controversially sacked by Watford after a downturn in results following his failure to secure the Everton job, and when Silva took over at Everton in the 2018–19 season, Everton were forced to pay £4 million in compensation to Watford for what was described as "an unwarranted approach" whilst Silva was still at Watford. Allardyce guided the club to 8th in the league, but could not prevent exits in the Europa League group stage and the FA Cup third round. Allardyce was dismissed at the conclusion of the season, with Everton's fans criticising Allardyce's style of play on a number of occasions; the club stated "The decision is part of a long-term plan".
