Manchester United accept offer for Grace Clinton from cross-town rivals Manchester City; England midfielder is out of contract next summer, with club unwilling to lose her for nothing; fellow Lioness Jess Park may move in other direction ahead of Thursday's transfer deadline By Anton Toloui, Sky Sports News reporter Wednesday 3 September 2025 22: 16, UK Manchester United have reluctantly accepted an offer from Manchester City for Grace Clinton. The England midfielder is into the final year of her contract and Man United are keen to avoid losing her for free, just as they have Alessia Russo, Ona Batlle and Mary Earps in recent years. In order to bolster their squad, United have made Man City's Jess Park their top target. A bid for the attacking player came out of the blue but her attacking prowess could bring an extra dimension to United. Both deals are likely to be completed on Deadline Day, which is on Thursday. Man Utd Women are in talks with Man City Women about a possible deal for England midfielder Jess Park. A permanent move is being discussed ahead of Thursday night's deadline.
