Manchester United are exploring a move to sign the England midfielder Jess Park from Manchester City before the Women\u2019s Super League transfer window shuts on Thursday, the Guardian can reveal.<\/p>\n
Park has been with City for eight years. She made her debut as a 16-year-old in 2017, was part of the Lionesses squad that lifted the Euro 2025 title<\/a> in Switzerland this summer and has been a key player for her club for several seasons. Park was part of the side that won the FA Cup in 2020<\/a> and played in 21 of her club\u2019s 22 league games last term as they finished fourth.<\/p>\n The 23-year-old has 20 England caps and has scored three international goals, including the winner against the world champions, Spain, in a Nations League fixture<\/a> at Wembley in February.<\/p>\n The WSL transfer window closes at 11pm BST on Thursday and a large number of deals are being worked on, including several high-profile and potentially big-money moves.<\/p>\n London City Lionesses<\/a> are understood to be close to signing the Spain youth international Luc\u00eda Corrales from Barcelona, after meeting her release clause of about \u20ac500,000 (\u00a3435,000). If personal terms are agreed, that would make her the fourth-most expensive signing in WSL history, and a record sale for a Spanish player.<\/p>\n The 19-year-old, who spent last season on loan at Sevilla, scored the winning goal in the semi-final of the 2022 Under-17 World Cup against Germany, with Spain going on to win the final. She was one of the first female footballers to live at Barcelona\u2019s La Masia training base and the Spanish club released a statement on Monday confirming that Corrales\u2019s buyout clause had been met by an unnamed club.<\/p>\n skip past newsletter promotion<\/a><\/p>\n Sign up to Moving the Goalposts<\/p>\n No topic is too small or too big for us to cover as we deliver a twice-weekly roundup of the wonderful world of women\u2019s football<\/p>\n Privacy Notice: <\/strong>Newsletters may contain information about charities, online ads, and content funded by outside parties.
