The 36-year-old has been outspoken on issues regarding sexism and racism, discussing the barriers that women face in the workplace.

She went viral on social media after picking apart FIFA President Gianni Infantino’s recent speech.

Reddy stated “I think this will be the World Cup that really underpins just how dirty the game is.”
