Man Utd manager Marc Skinner believes clubs lower down the Women's Super League making big name signings will make the competition "more exciting."
Skinner, 39, is currently looking to bring players into his United squad after England international Lucy Staniforth was allowed to leave the club to join mid-table Aston Villa this week. The Midlands outfit have also signed Jordan Nobbs from Arsenal, while Beth England left title-chasing Chelsea to join eighth-placed Tottenham earlier this month.
The United manager is currently preparing his team for a return to WSL action against Liverpool this weekend. Although Skinner did also warn that rising transfer fees in the women's game could be problematic for the pyramid, he believes that top players moving to clubs outside of the top four highlighted the league's growth after a trio of eye-catching moves.
