As a player, Stoney lifted 12 major trophies - including two league titles and four FA Cups - during her time at Chelsea, Arsenal, Charlton Athletic, Lincoln Ladies and Liverpool.
She won 130 England caps and skippered her country, appearing in three World Cups. She also captained Great Britain in the 2012 London Olympics.
Stoney retired from playing at the age of 35 in February 2018.
"Destined for a career in management, she became the first ever head coach of Manchester United eight years ago, leading the club to promotion to the top flight in her first season in charge before consolidating their position in the league's upper echelons," said the WSL.
"Now heading up the Canadian women's national team after a spell at San Diego Wave, Stoney's impact on the game - particularly during its formative years - was profound, while her position as a trailblazer managerially has ensured that her name is firmly embedded in the history books."
Harrop made her WSL debut for Birmingham City in 2011 and won the FA Cup with them in 2012.
She made 135 appearances for her hometown club before joining Tottenham Hotspur in 2020 and retired in 2023.
The WSL said Harrop was "a player who played the entirety of her 12-year career in the Barclays WSL and once held the title of being the division's record appearance holder ... earning legendary status during her time with the Midlands outfit [Birmingham City] and establishing herself as one of the game's pioneers".
