"With a formidable 54 goals in 82 internationals, the Germany forward arrives at Carrington with a prolific record and the match-winner profile the club have been craving. At 28 years old she could spend the best years of her career at United, where she has signed a contract until June 2029. It could be a win-win situation for Lea and for Manchester United, says Daniel Kraus, who coached Schuller at SGS Essen between 2016 and 2019."
"She has everything to be a world-class striker, because she is fast, she has two great feet, she is good with the head, and she is strong, so I think she has got everything and I'm really looking forward to seeing her playing in England. If she has Fridolina Rolfo to the side with crosses and Ella Toone behind her who can feed her with passes she is really good in the box and with her head she will score goals."
Lea Schuller has scored more than 10 league goals in each of the past seven Frauen-Bundesliga seasons and has 54 goals in 82 internationals. She arrives at Manchester United with a prolific record and a match-winner profile, signing a three-and-a-half-year contract through June 2029. Daniel Kraus coached Schuller at SGS Essen between 2016 and 2019. She is fast, two-footed, strong and effective in the air, and she predominantly plays as a central striker straight down the middle. Partnerships with wide attackers and creative midfielders are likely to boost her goal output and adapting to England's physical style could expand her national-team role.
