Manchester United Women are close to signing a player.

A move could be completed as soon as this week after personal terms have been worked out, and a deal was agreed before the European Championships.

After two seasons at Lyon, where she won the Europe's premier club competition, she only made one start and scored one WSL goal for the Gunners as they finished second in the league, a point behind title-holdersChelsea.

United finished 14 points behind the WSL champion last season, and hope the signing of Parris will help bridge the gap.

If she were to move to Manchester United, she would have the chance to draw a line under her struggles to establish a regular starting role at the club and further strengthen her claim to retain her place in the squad for the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand in three years' time.
