Career

[edit]

In 2020 Miksone played in Iceland's Besta deild kvenna for ÍBV.[1] In January 2021, she signed with Lithuanian FC Gintra.[2][3] In the end of August 2021, she was one of two Latvians to leave the club alongside defender Anastasija Ročāne.[4] She subsequently joined Polish Ekstraliga side Medyk Konin, scoring her first league goal for the club in a 4–1 September 2021 win against Rekord Bielsko-Biała.[5]

In January 2025, Miksone was recognised as the Latvian Footballer of the Year for 2024, winning the award for the first time.[6]

International career

Miksone was only 14 years and 322 days old when she made her debut for the Latvia national team on 6 February 2015. She replaced long-time team captain Olga Matīsa in the 66th minute of a friendly match, which resulted in a 0–2 loss to Estonia.[7]

She continued to play for her national team at age groups, scoring twice for the Latvia under-19 team in the 2017 Baltic Cup.[8]

Miksone appeared for the team during the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup qualifying cycle.[9] In September 2023 Miksone scored a hat trick in a 4–0 UEFA Nations League win, away against Andorra.[10] She scored five goals in nine games for the national team in 2024, going past 20 international goals in the process.[6]
