Welcome back to Squad Depth with Theo Lloyd-Hughes.

This week, it's a sit-down with Amy Andrews.

The Englishwoman completed five impressive years in the NCAA with Western Illinois, before then having an outstanding season in the inaugural USL-W league in 2022, where she scored 16 goals in 10 games and won the league title with Georgia Tormenta FC.

In August 2023, she signed her first professional contract with Durham FC in the English Women's Championship.

The 24-year-old Andrews opened up about her unique journey to becoming a pro, making decisions to enjoy her football as a youth player, before then facing rejection after going undrafted by the NWSL after university. All the while fighting to grow, be seen, and do it her way.

The feisty forward also opened up about why she has a penchant for late match-winning and match-drawing goals. And dug into why her goal celebrations are a big part of her game and her agenda in general for the women's game.
