Club career

In January 2018, Roebuck signed her first professional contract with Manchester City, having made her senior breakthrough from the Development Squad due to an injury to Karen Bardsley.[2][4] On 23 May 2019, Roebuck, having been part of the side that won both the FA Cup and League Cup, extended her contract with Manchester City for another two years.[5]

International career

Roebuck was part of the England squad that won bronze medal in the 2018 U20 World Cup in France, however, she was an unused substitute in all the fixtures.[6][7]

In October 2018, England manager Phil Neville named Roebuck and Manchester City team-mate Georgia Stanway in his squad for the first time.[8] Roebuck made her senior team debut as a 79th minute substitute for Mary Earps on 8 November 2018 against Austria.[9] She made her first start, before being replaced by Earps at half time, in a 2–1 win against Spain on 9 April 2019.[10]
