The Not-So-Secret Diary of a Footballer cover

Get ready to peek behind the scenes in this hilarious and not-so-secret diary from legendary Lioness Ella Toone.

The Lionesses are heading into a big football tournament – and when I say big, I mean BIG. I’m so excited, but I’m nervous too. So my manager suggested I write all my feelings down in a diary.

Now, I know a diary is meant to be top-secret, but I want to share this with YOU!


So I’m going to write down EXACTLY what happens behind the scenes - the highs, the lows and the funny bits in-between - from the training sessions, to the funny pranks us Lionesses play on each other, to the pre-match meals and the post-match celebrations. And I’ll squeeze in a load of flashbacks too ... I have far too many amazing memories to keep to myself!
