Jamaican international and Manchester City striker Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw is a goalscoring phenomenon. A complete centre-forward with power and precision in abundance. Lethal with either foot and dominant in the air, she leads the line with strength, intelligence, and ruthless efficiency that few defenders can handle.
For club and country, she has scored an astonishing 186 goals in 194 appearances, averaging 1.29 goals per game for her national team Jamaica.
Since joining Manchester City, Shaw has been the heartbeat of their attack, netting 66 goals in 76 WSL appearances. Her movement off the ball, instinctive finishing, and ability to create space for others have made her one of the most feared strikers in world football.
Relentless in front of goal, the Jamaican superstar has claimed back-to-back WSL Golden Boots, firing City to domestic success. On the international stage, she continues to inspire a generation – Jamaica’s all-time leading scorer and a proud symbol of Caribbean football excellence.
