Arsenal make world-record bid for Man Utd's Russo

Arsenal have made a world-record bid for Manchester United striker Alessia Russo.

The England forward is out of contract at the end of the season but Arsenal are trying to sort out a deal before Tuesday's 5pm WSL transfer deadline.

Man Utd have been in contract talks with Russo for months but have made little progress.

Russo is therefore free to talk to clubs outside England about a summer move and there has been interest from clubs in the United States

The current world record for a player is around £400k when Keira Walsh moved to Barcelona from Man City in September 2022.

MCI reported over the weekend Arsenal had rejected a "substantial offer" from Chelsea for Katie McCabe
