Mary Earps's dynamic performance for England at the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup certainly has not gone unnoticed.
The 30-year-old featured in all seven of England's games as the Lionesses made a run to the tournament finals, and while she was unable to prevent her team from losing 1-0 to Spain, she nonetheless received deserved plaudits for her showings for Sarina Wiegman's side. As a result, the Nottingham-born goalkeeper received the Golden Glove prize. She was also a key protagonist for England as they beat Brazil on spot-kicks during the re-instated Finalissima competition while her heroics were vital in England's triumph at the UEFA Women's EURO competition in 2022.
Domestically, Earps, who plays her club football for Manchester United, played an equally instrumental part in the Red Devils' excellent run in the WSL, where they were narrowly pipped to the league title by Chelsea. Not surprisingly, Earps clinched several personal accolades, including the WSL Golden Glove and receiving a nomination to the PFA WSL team of the year (her second since being named during the 2016/17 season).
So, it's no surprise that, according to several reports, that Manchester United have received a huge bid for Earps. While the exact amount and the interested team have not been publicly revealed, it's safe to say that her team will be keen on getting her to extend her contract, which has one year remaining on it.
Since signing with Manchester United in 2019, Earps has played in every single minute of WSL action for the past four seasons, and the Red Devils' leadership will certainly look to ensure that she remains with the team for years to come.
