Manchester United Women have said goodbye to another long-term servant at the club.

They have already reportedly agreed a deal with Spanish fullback Andrea Medina from Atletico Madrid.

She won four Women’s Super League trophies in West London. All in all, she played 95 times for United, scoring three goals and winning the FA Cup in 2024. She also won the 2022/23 United Women Players’ Player of the Year award. Blundell spent half of last season on loan at Everton, playing in 12 matches.
