Overview

• United play PSV Eindhoven on Wednesday in Stockholm in the UEFA Women’s Champions League second qualifying-round semi-final.
• A 27-player travelling group has been confirmed for the mini-tournament, with summer arrivals Julia Zigiotti Olme and Fridolina Rolfö included.
• Rolfö, Leah Galton and Rachel Williams are expected to be out for two to three weeks and will miss the PSV match, with Grace Clinton being monitored for a minor issue.
• Marc Skinner said United are pursuing one or two forwards before the window closes, with a move for Germany’s Giovanna Hoffmann described as unlikely due to valuation gaps.
• Skinner warned about fast-rising transfer prices after the women’s game saw its first reported seven-figure fees, urging a focus on value over “wild west” spending.
