Grant began playing football at sc Spaland in Schiedam and moved to Ajax in the summer of 2020 after playing three seasons at ADO Den Haag. She debuted for the Amsterdam-based team on September 6, 2020, against FC Twente. A little over a year and a half later, Grant also debuted for the Oranje Leeuwinnen, of which she has been a part ever since. In total, she played 120 matches and scored 33 goals for Ajax.

The attacker won several titles with Ajax, including a national championship, two Dutch Cups, and an Eredivisie Cup. Last season, she impressed with Ajax during their European campaign. Ajax became the first Dutch club to reach the UEFA Women's Champions League quarterfinals.

Technical Director Alex Kroes: "Of course, it is a loss for the team to see Chasity leave. As one of the experienced players in the squad, she made a significant contribution to the success of recent years, both on and off the field. But as Ajax, we have also expressed the ambition in women's football not only to win trophies but also to train and sell players. That is part of Ajax. Therefore, this record transfer for Ajax Women also fills me with pride. I wish Chasity all the success in Birmingham"

Chasity Grant: "It was a difficult choice, for sure. I really enjoyed my time at Ajax and made many friends there. But I felt this was the right moment to take a step. The trophies and the route in the UEFA Women's Champions League last season were my highlights at Ajax. I will miss everything here."
