Club career

Muir started her career with Rangers.[1] She moved to Hibernian in July 2019.[2] On 9 June 2022 it was announced that she had signed for Glasgow City. Glasgow manager Eileen Gleeson said of the signing: "I’m delighted that Amy has chosen to join Glasgow City FC. She is an exciting young Scottish player with huge potential and great experience of the Scottish league. Beyond Amy’s capabilities as a player, she is a committed determined character which are key characteristics we look for in a person."[3]

Muir was added to the full Scotland squad for the first time in August 2019 as an injury replacement,[5] but she had to withdraw herself due to injury a day later.[6] She made her full international debut at the 2020 Pinatar Cup, as she appeared as substitute in a 2–1 win against Northern Ireland on 10 March.[4][7]
