Manchester United has signed Spanish World Cup winner Irene Guerrero from Atletico Madrid in a bid to improve their squad on the transfer deadline. 

The club also signed Gabby George from Everton, after the Red Devils enjoyed their best-ever season in 2022/23 after finishing second in the table.

Speaking about the transfer, head coach Marc Skinner said. 

“Irene is a World Cup winner whose quality is an excellent addition to our team.

“The experience she brings, both domestically and internationally, will be key as we pursue success across the multiple competitions we face this season.

“We are delighted to bring a player of Irene’s stature to Manchester United Women.”

George, also 26, became the first female player to sign a professional contract at Everton six years ago and paid tribute to her former club.

“I wouldn’t be the player and person I am today if it wasn’t for Everton. I will always be incredibly grateful for that,” George told Everton’s website. “Everton will always hold a special place in my heart. I wish the club and the outstanding supporters the very best for this season and beyond.”
