Khiara Ilhaan Keating (born 27 June 2004) is an English professional footballer who currently plays as a goalkeeper for Women's Super League club Manchester City and the English national team.
Club career
Playing for Manchester United until the age of 11 she moved across to their city rivals in 2015. After a handful of appearances on the bench for City during the 2020–21 season she was loaned out to FA Women's National League North's Fylde at the start of the next.[1] Due to a long injury list at Manchester City however she was recalled after a short period and a few appearances as cover for more senior players. She made her debut for the side on 12 January 2022, starting in a FA Women's League Cup against Leicester City.[2] A few days later on 16 January 2022 she made her league debut with 90 minutes against Aston Villa.[3] In January 2023, Keating joined Coventry United on loan until the end of the 2022–23 Women's Championship season.[4]
In November 2023, Keating signed a three-year extension with Manchester City, after starting in each game of the 2023-2024 WSL season, describing her breakthrough as "surreal".[5][6]
International career
She made one appearance for England under-15's and made her debut for the under 19 side against the Republic of Ireland on 20 October 2021.[7] Keating received her first senior call-up on 17 October 2023 for a pair of UEFA Women's Nations League matches against Belgium.[8]
