Leah Eddie (born 23 January 2001) is a Scottish footballer who plays as a defender for Rangers in the Scottish Women's Premier League (SWPL) and the Scotland national team.

Club career

Eddie attended the Performance School at Graeme High School in Falkirk, and played for Central Ladies Academy.[2] After a stint with Rangers she joined Hibernian in 2018.[3] She missed most of the 2019 season due to a knee injury.[3]

International career

Eddie represented Scotland at the under-17 and under-19 levels.[1] She was added to the full national team in June 2021 and made her international debut that month in a 1–0 win against Northern Ireland.[1]

Eddie was not in the original 26-player Scottish squad to play in the 2022 Pinatar Cup,[4] but Erin Cuthbert and Chloe Logan were injured and they were replaced by Rachael Johnstone and Eddie.[5]
