USWNT's Christen Press, Tobin Heath Sign With Manchester United Women

Two more U.S. women's national team stars are headed to Manchester.

Christen Press and Tobin Heath have signed with Manchester United Women, following Manchester City's double signing of Rose Lavelle and Sam Mewis. Both Press and Heath are signed through the end of the 2020-2021 FA Women's Super League season, Man United said in a pair of announcements on Wednesday.

Press leaves NWSL's Utah Royals, while Heath leaves the Portland Thorns, though both clubs will retain those players' rights if and when they return to the league–the same way that Lavelle's rights remain with OL Reign and Mewis's with the North Carolina Courage.
