She could literally excel in any position barring the defense line. One of the most special young wonder kids in the world. Her name is Aggie Beever-Jones.
Beever-Jones is one of the most diverse, and versatile players in the world at her insanely young age. Just watching her play football, she passes the eye test with flying colors. Regardless of her position- in the left or right wing, as a number ten, as a number eight, or as a striker she leaves a mark on either of the positions. For a long time in her career, she played as a goalkeeper for the boy’s side.
She embodies the idea of position-less football that she can seamlessly fit into any formation, tactics, or club.

So this is how Beever-Jones is rising to be the most versatile female football player of her era.
Born in Carshalton, England, on 27 July 2003, Beever-Jones came from a family that supported her football dreams. They selflessly gave up most of their time to take their young daughter to training. According to Beever, education was not her thing, and the moment her parents took her to a local club, she never looked back.
In 2020/21, Beever-Jones made her senior debut for Chelsea as a product of the Chelsea Academy. However, she had to go on loan the following season 2021-22, to iron out her craft to come back ready to don the ‘heavy’ Chelsea shirt.
In the 2021-22 season, she joined Bristol City- by then, a Championship side, where she was allowed to make mistakes and learn from them. She was fed and taken care of as a young footballer which was essential towards her next stage of another loan spell.
In the 2022-23 season, Beever Jones joined Everton on loan in the WSL. By Beever-Jone’s words, Everton was the perfect loan spell for her since she was able to learn the league and have the liberty to make mistakes and learn from them.
She would return from her loan spell and join the Chelsea squad in the 2023-24 season campaign. It did not take her long to find the back of the net. In October 2023, she would come off the bench as a substitute against Brighton. She would not stop at that as she followed her scoring in the next two successive games where she scored a spectacular goal against Everton, Yes! You heard me right.
During the Women’s international break that was slated 19-28 February 2024, Beever-Jones made her senior England debut where she took part in both matches that England participated in. Match against Austria- England won 7-2, and in a match against Italy- England won 5-1.
She was the stand-out player in those two encounters.
In a Podcast from Upfront, pundit’s heaped praises on her, “Aggie Beever-Jones was superb at both matches, not only at what she did at the ball but off the ball. Her communication, and how she kind of conducted people- knowing where to stand, to come up higher, to come up to press. She stood out, and I would not be surprised if she made her senior debut soon enough. She has been brilliant.”
Beever-Jones is a World Class player in the making.
