Early life and education

Playing career

GBK Kokkola

Wyne played for Finnish club GBK Kokkola in 2013 followed by Iceland's Víkingur Ólafsvík in 2014. In 2015, she moved to Cyprus' Apollon Ladies F.C. where they qualified for the UEFA Women's Champions League, which Wyne participated in.[2] In 2016, Wyne returned to Iceland to play for Þór/KA after a suggestion from former Apollon player Cecilia Santiago as they felt she was a like-for-like replacement for fellow American Heid Ragne who had to return to the United States.[7][8][9] In 2016, she temporarily returned to the United States to play for Atlanta Silverbacks in the WPSL.[10]

Sunderland

In 2017, Wyne moved to England to play for FA WSL 1 side Sunderland[11][12] on the transfer deadline day[13] before Þór/KA's final two league fixtures.[14] Þór/KA agreed to release Wyne to Sunderland early as they did not want to stop Wyne taking advantage of the opportunity to play for Sunderland Ladies.[15][16]

Klepp IL

Wyne signed with Norwegian side Klepp IL for the 2018 season.[17] She scored her first goal for the club during the team's 1-1 draw against Vålerenga on September 9.[18] During a 5-3 win against IK Grand Bodø, she scored two goals in the 28th and 59th minutes.[19][20] Klepp IL finished in second place during the 2018 Toppserien with a 15–4–3 record.[21] Zyne's two goals tied for fifth highest on the squad.[22]

Glasgow City
