Mary Earps Departs Manchester United After Stellar Five-Year Tenure

Mary Earps, the acclaimed England goalkeeper, is leaving Manchester United after five successful years. Earps, who played a pivotal role in England's 2022 European Championship win and the World Cup final, announced her departure on social media, citing a desire for a new challenge. Her next destination is rumored to be Paris Saint-Germain.

England goalkeeper Mary Earps is set to leave Manchester United following a notable five-year tenure. This marks the third major departure for the club's women's team in less than a week.

Earps' tenure at United saw significant achievements, including helping England clinch the 2022 European Championship and advancing to last year's World Cup final, where she was honored as the best goalkeeper of the tournament. However, Earps announced on social media her decision to pursue a 'new challenge' in her club career.

'It's a decision I've gone backward and forward on for some time and is not one I've made lightly,' Earps wrote. She hinted that the club's upcoming transition period did not align with her career timing.

Earps did not reveal her next club but has been widely speculated to join Paris Saint-Germain. Her departure follows announcements from United captain Katie Zelem and Spain striker Lucia Garcia, indicating a period of significant change for the team. Last season, Earps was instrumental in United's Women's FA Cup victory, securing their first major trophy.

Manchester United expressed gratitude for her contributions and wished her success in future endeavors.
