Alex Greenwood (born 7 September 1993) is an English footballer who plays as a defender for Liverpool of the FA WSL. She previously played for Notts County and Everton, where she began her career. Greenwood has played for the England women's national football team since 2014 and was named the FA Women's Young Player of the Year in 2012. She can play at centre-back as well as left-back and is considered to be a set-piece specialist.
Liverpool-born Greenwood joined Everton at the age of eight, and progressed through the club's Centre of Excellence. In August 2010 she made her first team debut in the 2010–11 UEFA Women's Champions League qualification round.
When Everton's longstanding left-back Rachel Unitt signed for Birmingham City after the 2011 FA WSL season, Greenwood took over her place in the team. Throughout the 2012 season she performed so well that she was named FA Young Player of the Year at The Football Association (FA) Women's Football Awards in November.
Greenwood played in Everton's 2–0 2014 FA Women's Cup final defeat by Arsenal. When the 2014 season culminated in Everton's relegation, Greenwood requested to leave in order to protect her national team place ahead of the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup. She signed for Notts County on a two-year contract for an undisclosed transfer fee. The move disappointed Everton who wanted Greenwood to leave on loan and come back if they were promoted again.
