It’s been a busy day for Manchester United Women as they announce their second transfer window signing just hours after introducing Jayde Riviere.
Estelle Cascarino has joined the Reds on loan from PSG until the end of the season.
The 25-year-old spent the last two seasons at PSG and previously had stints with Bordeaux, Paris FC and Olympique de Lyon, winning two Division 1 titles and two French Cups in her career.
The French international made her debut for her country in 2017, having previously represented France in all age groups from 16 and under.
Speaking of her move to United, she said: “I’m very happy and excited to be here. I want to grow as a player and as a person, and help the team win trophies.”
He continued: “On the field I am a fighter and I like to help the team both in attack and defense. I can’t wait to start here in England.”
Manager Marc Skinner said: “We played Estelle in the Toulouse Cup in the summer, and it was clear to see what she can add to our group.”
He added: “Estelle will add quality and versatility both in and out of possession. He can play as a midfielder or central defender with excellent technical ability and the calm of a player who trusts in his own ability.
“We look forward to working with Estelle as we build a highly competitive and forward-thinking team.”
Polly Bancroft, Director of Women’s Soccer, said: “Estelle is a proven winner who can offer our team key position options, as we move towards a strong finish to the second half of the season.”
He continued: “His experience will undoubtedly prove invaluable to the group and we are delighted to welcome him to United.”
United are looking to secure Champions League football for next season by finishing inside the top three this year. Both Riviere and Cascarino will be huge assets to Skinner’s team and should help secure the Reds’ position in the WSL.
