Earps, who plays for Manchester United in the Women’s Super League, started all six of England’s games at Euro 2022 as they won the competition.
The 29-year-old kept four clean sheets and let in just two goals and was named in the team of the tournament.
She also recently became the first goalkeeper to keep 50 clean sheets in the WSL.
“I feel really honoured to be holding this heavy trophy,” said Earps. “Thank you to my loved ones who picked me up off the kitchen floor a few years ago.
“And to Sarina Wiegman, I have run out of words to say to you. Thank you for believing in me the way you have. This is for anyone who has been in a dark place. There is light at the end of the tunnel.”
