Mary Earps' contract with Manchester United is set to expire this summer, and the Lioness keeper has attracted the attention of some of Europe's top clubs. Reports suggest that Paris Saint-German have emerged as the new favourites for her signature.
The 30-year-old has seen her stellar career reach new heights over the past two years, resulting in her recently being awarded BBC's Sports Personality of the Year and receiving an MBE. Earps is searching for regular Women's Champions League football, something Manchester United missed out on after losing to PSG in the final qualifying round in October.
Arsenal were the original favourites to land the keeper, as they saw an offer in excess of £100,000 rejected on deadline day in the summer. However, their interest has reportedly cooled in recent months, leaving the door open for other clubs such as Barcelona and PSG to make their pitch to Earps.
The Lioness has not yet confirmed her intentions for the end of the season, but recently spoke out against reports claiming she wanted to leave before the start of the season. She expressed her anger and frustration at the situation, but stressed that she has been behaving professionally and with integrity.
Mary Earps has been a key figure for United since joining in 2019, and her incredible year was recently capped off with an MBE award in the New Year Honours List. It is unclear where the goalkeeper will end up, but it is certain she will be a valuable asset for any club looking to make a statement in the Women's Champions League.
