Muir’s side eventually went on to win SWPL in dramatic fashion on the final day of the season last month, snatching the title from Celtic with a last-minute goal against Rangers.
The 23-year-old faces competition from teammate Lauren Davidson, Hearts’ Aimee Anderson, Lucy Ashworth-Clifford of Celtic, and Rangers forward Lizzie Arnot.
