"Image source, Getty Images Manchester United's England international Grace Clinton is closing in on a move to Manchester City before Thursday's transfer deadline. The 22-year-old midfielder has attracted interest from several clubs this summer with just a year remaining on her contract and no renewal agreed. Local rivals City are in talks to reach a deal with United before 23:00 BST on Thursday, while England midfielder Jess Park is set to move the other way."
"Park, 23, who was also part of England's Euro 2025-winning squad, was set for a medical at Carrington on Wednesday evening. United see Park as a high-quality addition and while the deals are separate, she is considered a strong replacement for Clinton. United were keen to keep Clinton, but they would rather cash in on the England international and avoid losing her for free next year."
