Erin Nicole Nayler (born 17 April 1992) is a New Zealand professional association football goalkeeper, who played for Bayern Munich of the German Frauen-Bundesliga.[4] She has represented New Zealand at international level.[5]

Early life[edit]

Nayler started playing as a goalkeeper at the age of 10.[6][7] Playing for Westlake Girls High School with her father Mark as coach, Nayler won many Secondary School tournaments before graduating in 2009.[8] Afterwards she went to Indiana University – Purdue University Fort Wayne in 2010,[9] spending one year playing for the IPFW Mastodons and studying biology.[10] She is got a degree in Molecular Biology at Massey University.[6][11] While once engaged to Jordan Carter,[7] since 2022 she's in a relationship with a woman, goalkeeping coach Mikaela Jacobson.[12]

Career[edit]

Nayler was a member of the New Zealand U-20 side at the 2010 and 2012 Women's World Championships, playing in all three of New Zealand's group games at both events.[13][14] The performances earned her a spot at the senior New Zealand team, the "Football Ferns", for the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup.[15] Nayler was the only uncapped member of New Zealand's squad and did not feature in the tournament.[16] She was also a standby player for the 2012 Olympics.[17]

With Bordeaux in 2018.

Nayler's eventual senior début happened at the 2013 Cyprus Cup, in a 2–0 win over Italy.[18]

She played all three matches of New Zealand at the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada.[19] Nayler was chosen as Player of the Match during her second game, as she kept a clean sheet in a 0–0 tie with the hosts in Edmonton.[20]

In 2015, Nayler was captain of Northern Football as they won the National Women's League, the top-flight women's football tournament of New Zealand.[21] She also played for Norwest United of the Northern League.[16] In 2016, Northern Football manager Paul Greig had become assistant coach of Sky Blue FC, in the United States' National Women's Soccer League, and led his new team to sign Nayler.[22] However, she was released by Sky Blue after 26 days and no games played, and Sky Blue signed another outfielder instead.[23][24]

Nayler then hoped to use the 2016 Olympics, where she was again the Ferns' starting goalie, to see if she attracted the attention of any foreign clubs.[25] In the Olympics, Nayler had a clean sheet in New Zealand's second game, a defeat of Colombia by 1–0, but the Ferns fell in the group stage following defeats to the United States and France.[26]

Shortly after the Games, Nayler signed a two-year contract with Olympique Lyonnais of France.[27] In 2017 she was loaned to women's team of Grenoble Foot 38, who played the Division 2, after seeing no playing time as the third goalkeeper.[28][29] For the 2017–18 season, Nayler signed with the female squad of FC Girondins de Bordeaux, who played in the Division 1.[30] At the end of her first season, where Bordeaux finished seventh, Nayler renewed her contract for an additional two years.[31]

In April 2019, Nayler was named to the final 23-player squad for the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup.[32]

In August 2020, Nayler announced she had signed for FA Women's Super League club Reading. Unable to dislodge the incumbent goalkeeper Grace Moloney and unhappy at a lack of playing opportunities, Nayler left after one season.[33]

On 27 October 2021, Damallsvenskan club Umeå IK announced the signing of Nayler ahead of their 2022 season, where she played during 2022.[34]

On 1 December 2022, Damallsvenskan club IFK Norrköping announced the signing of Nayler ahead of their 2023 season.[35]

Bayern Munich announced in August 2023 that Nayler had signed a one-year contract with the club.[4] Nayler played as a substitute in the last home match of 2023–24 Frauen-Bundesliga season against 1. FC Nürnberg.[36]
