Club career

Fox joined Chelsea's academy aged 8. She made her club debut with Chelsea in a 4–0 away victory against Aston Villa in the 2020–21 campaign. In the same season, she was handed her first start for the club in a 5–0 win over London City Lionesses. On 9 November 2021, Fox made her UEFA Women's Champions League debut, replacing Guro Reiten against Servette.

On 23 August 2022, it was announced that Fox had joined Women's Super League side Brighton & Hove Albion for the remainder of the 2022–23 season.
Fox returned to Chelsea in May 2023 after sustaining an anterior cruciate ligament rupture while on loan with Brighton & Hove Albion.
On 15 August 2024, Fox signed a contract extension with Chelsea until 2027 before joining newly promoted WSL side Crystal Palace on loan for the 2024–25 season.

She remained with Crystal Palace until 4 January 2025 when she returned to Chelsea to continue her recovery.
On 4 September 2025, it was announced that Fox had joined Women's Championship club Newcastle United on loan for the 2025–26 season. After 870 days recovering from ACL injuries, she made her return to competitive football in a start against Nottingham Forrest on 24 September 2025. Reflecting on her time spent recovering from injury and how it changed her perspective on football, she said "I often let it control how happy I was outside of football, but now I'm able to put stuff in perspective a lot better, which I think is good both on and off the pitch. My whole life, football has been what I'm good at, and it's been a way to show who I am and what I can do, and ultimately, I missed that feeling and can't wait to get a bit of my flair back."
Ipswich Town, 2026–
On 28 August 2026, Fox signed a one-year contract with Ipswich Town.
