The exodus of players from Manchester City Women continued on Thursday with the club announcing that Lucy Bronze would leave this summer at the end of her contract.
The England defender becomes the third high-profile player whose departure has been confirmed in the past 10 days. The 30-year-old follows Georgia Stanway and Caroline Weir, and the back-up goalkeeper Karima Benameur Taieb, another whose deal is expiring, is also leaving.
