The January transfer window is well advanced for both the men’s and women’s teams, and Manchester United women have been linked with a number of players.
The latest news suggests United may be interested in signing Haitian midfielder Melchie Dumornay.
The 19-year-old has six months left on her contract at the Stade de Reims so she could do summer pre-contracts in this window.
Both United and Chelsea are believed to be in the running to sign the youngster, with City also applying.
However, the WSL teams face stiff competition from Lyon, who are also interested in Dumornay.
The latest rumors come from BBC journalist Emma Sanders.
