Manchester United secures Netherlands’ Janssen on a free transfer

Manchester United have made a big signing by bringing in former Arsenal and Wolfsburg defender Dominique Janssen on a three-year contract, with the option of an additional season. The 29-year-old Netherlands international has over 100 caps for her national team and has won two league titles with Wolfsburg. Janssen started in the Champions League finals in 2020 and 2023, where Wolfsburg were runners-up to Lyon and Barcelona.

Janssen expressed her excitement about joining Manchester United, calling it a proud moment for her to be at such a big club. She is eager to return to the English league and help the team achieve more success. United manager Marc Skinner praised Janssen’s winning mentality and experience, stating that she will be a valuable addition to the squad.

United has been looking to strengthen their defense after several key players suffered injuries last season, including Gabby George. The club has also seen the departures of captain Katie Zelem, forward Lucia Garcia, and goalkeeper Mary Earps. However, United is hopeful of signing Brighton forward Elisabeth Terland on a free transfer.

Overall, the addition of Dominique Janssen to Manchester United’s roster is seen as a positive step towards building a competitive and successful team for the upcoming season. Janssen’s experience and winning mentality will be invaluable as the team aims to achieve their goals and aspirations.
